dickey: i don't know. i haven't given it any thought. >> the second question, when you decided this was a person of interest, where did you start your research and what primary resources did you discover? mr. dickey: i focused on bunch when i was doing this research about richard francis burton and going through the dispatches at the british national archives at q which is a great place to , work if any of you are researchers and you haven't been, you should go. it is terribly well organized. looking at 19th century diplomatic correspondence they bringing out the original correspondence. so they bring it out and you can photograph it. you can can take a digital camera and photograph it. i would photograph hundreds of pages, sometimes a thousand pages in a day and i could look at everything on my computer when i was working on the ook. that correspondence, a lot of it has been looked at for about maybe half a dozen books and papers over the years. what hadn't been looked at is bunch's responses with the var

after a while, said dickey, we went upstairs to bed. there were two beds in our room and i remember that lincoln sat up in his night shirt, on the edge of the bed, arguing the opinion with me. at last we went to sleep. early in the morning, woke up and there was lincoln, half sitting up in the bed. dickey, said lincoln, i tell you this nation cannot exist half slave and half free. oh, lincoln, replied dickey good, to sleep. apparently a true story. >> host: a great story. the question over here. >> yes. about current republican president of the united states. with your political experience, after events of this week, how you see future of american president. >> small question. well, our current president -- did you know lincoln was republican? he has an interesting sense of history. so, i'm hesitant to get into great detail, and i could, about the current occupant of -- on the one hand i feel like the main character in the british version of holiday publish "house of cards" who are says you might say that. couldn't possibly comment. lin
