In this 1860 political cartoon, Lincoln uncomfortably straddles a wood plank carried by a black man and Horace Greeley of New York Tribune. The rail symbolizes the antislavery plank of the 1860 Republican platform — which Lincoln uneasily defended -- and his backwoods origins. https://t.co/vDYj1zLmNF — PolitiTweet.org
