Thank you for the Past and Present: The Lincoln-Douglas Debats, 150 Years Later. I was learning about these events in High School History and this article inparticular help me understand the impact the debates had on history. We might be living in a very different United States. I hope that the politicians of today would return to the methods of 1858, because town hall meetings are just pep rallies and the TV debates are controlled and unreaistic.
