Yes, in both the 2008 and 2012 elections. In 2008, he won with 69,456,897 votes to John McCain's 59,934,814 votes.

Some votes have still not been counted, but as of the end of November 2012, the total was 62,049,770 for Barack Obama, and 58,757,388 for Mitt Romney.
The first men as president didn't take payment. They were wealthy men in their own right.
He wanted to recover the south and make the country one again, while still abolishing slavery.
I believe Abraham Lincoln was a federalist. He was against slavery and most people against slavery were feds. (Federalists were for the const't.) I believe Lincoln was born in the North were most feds. were b/c they did not have slaves. Like in the South were most anti feds were slaves and they wanted to count slaves as citizens ( see the Virginia plan and New Jersay plan were we then came up with the great compromise.) Wrong. Lincoln was not a federalist-he was a nationalist or centralist. Federalism means the states make the federal government, not the other way around. Abraham Lincoln was the absolute opposite of a federalist, he began the movement that slowly began taking away states' rights and made the federal government stronger.

1) The Lincoln-Douglas Debate started August 21,1858. He was 49 then. 2) Lincoln was elected president at the age of 51. So technically he decided to run for president at the age of 49.
No. Abraham Lincoln was on the Union's side.
No, in fact this doesn't even make sense. TONS of presidents wore hats.
