Tell us what you think about today's top story!

Lincoln was the 16th U.S. President, and one of the most popular in history. Only the popularity of our first President, George Washington, seems to rival that of Lincoln. Who is your favorite President, and why?

My favorite one is George Washington. I chose him for no reason. I'M SORRY LINCOLN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Isabella you are wrong girl

This is a difficult choice to make. They were both great leaders in very difficult times. George Washington is fun to learn about and so is Abraham Lincoln.

Yea the same here it is difficult to choose between the two......so I guess both!!!
