Abe Lincoln also put the 15th amendment together. He thought that all citizens no matter what color or race you were should be allowed to vote. If all the old slaves were considered citizens now, why shouldn't they we allowed to vote? Many people in the south disagreed with this and got very mad, but the country had to be fair and equal
to all people. At this point Abe wanted slaves to have the same equal lives as all free people.
In conclusion, Abe Lincoln changed the world in so many ways. He helped establish three of the amendments, which has helped us today. Now everyone can vote and have equal freedom. We should not just honor Abe for being our 16th president, but for ending slavery and giving them their rights.
