Words of Wisdom Wednesday

Oooh a Pie!
November 9
Today's Words of Wisdom comes from the man who helped our country build on the idea of equal rights for all.
We should remember now, in this day and age, what with the midterms and all, that people will like or not like results about certain things. Certain people, certain rights, but we must remember, that we wanted this. In the US, we wanted a country where we didn't have a king to rule over us. Born into royal power, and given privileges just because they were born in a certain family.
We wanted someone who was one of us. Simple folk. Someone who was a commoner. A colonist, but we wanted someone who would rule in a way that was deemed fit for our society. And as years went by, a famous man, turned President had helped give rights to ALL people. Man, Woman, White, Black, Young, Old, Rich, Poor. We ALL have rights. The right to fair elections and a democracy! Which means we have fair and right ways to vote on who will be our leaders.
So, heres the quote.
"Democracy is the government of the people, by the people, for the people"
~Abraham Lincoln.
Have a great night
