9:45 am
he recognized how that affected his wife and guests. but it was not me and it was somebody else. he knew he would be killed. if i get to hen because i know he's there. why didn't you surround yourself with more guys. you knew they were coming for you. he knew. and the assassin john wilkes booth was engaged to a woman who was teping out on him with the president's son. that motivated him further to kill the president. >> i know you want many young people to look at it. >> if i can get the books in the hands of american adolescents and teenager. >> because they don't get taught history in school. they don't know who abraham lincoln is fun to read.
9:46 am
you will not go to sleep. and what do you think mr. lincoln would say is about the country today if he was witnessed to the polar taking place and a lot of political discourse and people are angry at elected officials and in the sense that people don't have a sense of control right now in >> what i did the super bowl interview. president obama showed me the getties burg address. obama and bush were admirers was linn con. they understand that he faced the challenges that we face today. he would not like the class warfare stuff. he would not like that. that divides americans rich and poor and this and that. >> the rest of it, hard to say. but i know he would not like the class warfare business. >> the passion for lincoln, where does it come from.
9:47 am
>> best american president. and washington, was a great president but he didn't have the challenges linn conhad. i wrote it because americans need to understand what a great leader he was and we need to get back to that level of leadership. >> terrific book. >> this book has great gossip. the general grant opted out because his wife did not like lincoln's wife. think about that. >> and herman cain is getting a lot of attention in the media and polls and recentlyy, not everyone is happy about it. we'll explain after the break. don't go away. so who ordered the cereal that can help lower olesterol and who ordered the yummy cereal? yummy.

9:53 am
unrealistic as possible and lustlyy feed the haves and have nots and feed america pizza. god thing that lennin was not this clever. ouch. not nice. that's what the left is doing. they have gone so far to say that the tea party is endorsing and they have endorsed herman cain because they use him as a front for their own innate racism. you can see how convoluted it gets. many of the writers are black liberals who are columnist and blogers in the country and most of them, of course, have taken to attacking cain. which is amazing when you consider his own background which is so impressive. articulate nature and the fact that he's ahead in the polls is resonated with the american people.
9:54 am
and so there we are. i might point out that his civil right's credentials seem to be sticking in the craw of the left. many of the black writers said he was not there on the scene. if you didn't have i was there for the civil right's movement you can't the black discussion or candidate it is a sad display on the left. >> it has been interesting no doubtt, liz and throughout herman cain is unflapable with all of the criticism. >> he does, and what is difficult to overcome is the innate warmness and good nature and willingness to say i made a mistake . boy, when the time comes, i will not make it again. he is an endearing candidate and americans are seeing that in him. >> we'll keep close watch and
