Abraham Lincoln

Explanation:

United State is a great country that has produced great leaders. "Everything rises and falls on leadership", said John C. Maxwell. Leadership is the ability to birth a vision and guide some set of people related by purpose and mission to achieve that vision. The best US president in my opinion is Abraham Lincoln. The reasons I shall highlight in the subsequent paragraphs.

Abraham Lincoln stood for the rights of others. He brought an end to slavery of African Americans. An heroic action he took because every one is equal and has the right to freedom-this he stood for despite opposition from his detractors.

President Lincoln was critical in the amalgamation of the North and the South of the America. He helped brought an end to the civil wars. The war was destructive and wasteful as lives and properties were lot during the encounters

He was influential in his speech. They were filled with moral rhetorics and wise sayings. Abraham helped solidified the Republican party.

In conclusion, great leaders knows the way,  walks the way and shows the way to others. Although, He was assassinated for what he stood for, his legacy will forever leave an indelible mark on the sand of time  .

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
