Edward Everett (1794-1865). Everett is best remembered as the long-winded orator who spoke before Lincoln at the Gettysburg National Cemetery dedication, but he was also John Bell's Constitutional Party running mate in the 1860 National Election.He could really talk
What famous orator, who subsequently delivered a rather lengthy speech in Pennsylvania, was a candidate for Vice President of the United States in 1860?
Hint: It wasn't Hannibal Hamlin. It wasn't Hannibal Lecter either
