Lincoln movie

           In the movie Lincoln president Abraham Lincoln is faced with many challenges from a war to trying to pass the 13th Amendment.  In the movie it show when he is talking to his family and kids he say that passing the 13th will be the hardest thing today and it will be hard to get the votes on it.  One of the problems he had with the proposal of the Amendment was at this time it was a very racies time and people weren't going to like what he was trying to do.  The whites were worried about the 4 million African Americans that were in the country and could take the whites jobs if the 13th was past.  Lincoln would need a 2/3 vote for the Amendment to be ratified.  When the 13th first went to the house most everyone was against the Amendment.  One man stood up for Lincoln can got the people to think the other way that Lincoln could end the war and help this nation.  When Lincoln realized that he was not going to get the votes he need he went out and talked to the people he knew could change there view on the 13th.  One of the people Lincoln talked to was George helm Yeaman and in the movie when he was called on to vote he said yes it changed the whole thing and then the 13th Amendment was pass.  Abraham Lincoln used a lot of resources with his power as president to pull his way to get the 13th passed.  He some times lied why we was trying the pass the Amendment like how he lied about peace talks.  He also said that after this Amendment was pass there was going to be more jobs open like mayor or postmaster and more.  In the end Lincoln was corrupt president Because in the end he was just looking to get the African American votes for his up coming re election for his 3 term but then was killed before anything came of it
