Like most of us, Obama could learn a great deal from Lincoln, especially in the way the Emancipation Proclamation came about. Radical abolitionist thinking increased across the North until Lincoln's middle-of-the-road approach was clearly hopeless. The #OccupyWallStreet people aren't abolitionists, but they're also not restricted to New York City any more. In fact, a group will meet tomorrow, Saturday, October 22, to plan Occupy Norristown. See you at 2pm at Steppy's in East Norriton, 2912 Swede Road (just north of Germantown Pike).
