4. Ambitious = orange
• He always wanted slavery to
end, even when it seemed
impossible. “His greatest
mission was … to free his
country from the great crime
of slavery.” - Fredrick
Douglass
• He worked hard throughout
the Civil War to keep the
country together. He did this
by trying to find a good
general which, was hard
because there were only few
in the north.
5. Loyal = blue
• Lincoln went to check on
soldiers on both sides of
the Civil War. He did that
because he cared about
everyone in the U.S even
if they did not like his
ideas.
• He always believed and
stayed true to the
Constitution and his
country. “… I shall have
the most solemn one
(oath) to „preserve, protect
and defend‟ it” - Abraham
Lincoln
6. Determined = red
• Abraham Lincoln had a
speech disorder that made
him stutter. He worked with a
teacher to help him overcome
his disorder. He finally

pleasant face, is amiable and
determined.”

I picked this song because it is perfect for Abe. It expresses him
as President. It is a very noble and courageous song, which are
two character traits for him. It also a nicely themed song, cool
tempo and awesome melody. This song has a 1800s feel to it
from my perspective. That is why I think this song is totally
perfect for Abe.
