For instance a "dress shirt" underneath the cardboard coat could be made by cutting out some of the cardboard in the middle and gluing white construction paper With malice toward none, with charity for all . . . let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation’s wounds. Speak with civility and politeness. Lincoln was no pushover, but all of his recorded speeches make him out to be a very down-to-earth, respectable and noble-minded speaker. If you want to be a great Abraham Lincoln, you should act with nobility no matter where you are. Keep your volume levelled, and don't speak out of turn. However, when you do speak, you should do so with force and conviction. This manner of speaking is a good part Although he's remembered for his beard, there were points in his life where Abraham Lincoln shaved his beard. A woman named Grace Bedell convinced him to grow it out. This had the effect of making Lincoln look more trustworthy and warm. [7]

Although no recordings of Lincoln's speech exist, historians have done research and concluded that Lincoln's voice was considerably higher-pitched than the usual baritone we hear from politicians.

He was a successful leader and popular president because he couldrelate and appeal to the "common folk" so when this Abraham Lincoln men's costume came into the office, we felt compelled to transform into the16th President of the United States. Known for being an incredibly honest man, the premiseof the movie Liar Liar automaticallypopped into our heads. What if we put on this costume and then suddenly had no self-control and blurted out every thought we had? (Now, that could land us in some hot water.) Also, Abe Lincoln was 6 ft. 4 in. tall which is intimidatingly tall (maybe he could have played some professional basketball), so that factor was a little daunting too.
