Kennedy had his whole clan which was part of his image.
I hope Obama will get away from the Lincoln thing as he matures into his position and becomes identifiable in his own right . Look at Mrs Thatcher, how long did it take to develop her Iron Lady persona.
Agree with Keith... and the fact that Obama will be inaugurated with the Lincoln bible....
Being the first Aftrican American president is quite a feat, I assume he can choose Lincoln to model himself after as it was the actions of Lincoln who made it possible for Barak to be where he is now.

Wouldn't he be better of just trying to be Obama?
Kennedy didn't model himself on anyone, yet his message was similar. I think Obama may be digging a hole for himself..
Only hope he does not go (kick the bucket) the same way as Lincoln ...lol
good one on the theatre.
First thing on his mind is .. no broadway shows for at least till end of his terms...

Is he going to the theatre?
Did you Google it first?
I think its a stroke of genius by his PR team to chose Lincoln.
The emancipation of the slaves , The Gettysburg address, Lincoln was cosidered to be a great orator which they say Obama is as well.
Lincoln was seen as a deeply serious and stoic man .
I think at this time its a great imagery for the American people.
