It is the election year 1868 and in the field of Candidates is Lincoln and Grant are both running for the office of President.
I ask "What if" Lincoln had lived and ran for a third term as President in 1868 but Grant chooses to run for President as well. Who would you have support in this epic Clash of American Titans for President?
Would the fight for political power have been played out within the Republican party convention of 1868?
Would Grant have run against Lincoln in the general election of 1868?
Grant was the man who won the war and defeat the great Bobby Lee. As President he could have won a third term but it was the republican party that had tried of him not the public.
Lincoln was our leader and soul of our nation in the war but could the Reconstruction years have soiled his image by 1868, if he had lived. Plus, he would have been breaking the standard of two terms set by Washington.
I ask who would you have supported in 1868 if Lincoln and Grant had face off for the Presidency of the United States of America?
Who do you think would have won between these two men in this epic Clash of American Titans? ?
A penny for our thoughts....
