The Constitution Is A Glorious Liberty Document.

The Constitution Of The United States Knows No Distinction Between Citizens On Account Of Color. Neither Does It Know Any Difference Between A Citizen Of A State And A Citizen Of The United States.

I Recognize The Republican Party As The Sheet Anchor Of The Colored Man's Political Hopes And The Ark Of His Safety.

At A Time Like This, Scorching Irony, Not Convincing Argument, Is Needed.

I Will Unite With Anyone To Do Good, But With No One To Do Harm.

If We Would Reach A Degree Of Civilization Higher And Grander Than Any Yet Attained, We Should Welcome To Our Ample Continent All The Nations, Kindreds, Tongues And Peoples, And As Fast As They Learn Our Language And Comprehend The Duties Of Citizenship, We Should Incorporate Them Into The American Body Politic. The Outspread Wings Of The American Eagle Are Broad Enough To Shelter All Who Are Likely To Come.
