 Let me go to the, because this is pretty wackadoodle-do. The first Republican president ever was, of course, Abraham Lincoln. Emancipation Proclamation, 13th Amendment, freed the slaves. Shot in the head at Ford's Theater, Washington, D.C., while seeing a play with his wife. Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you enjoy the play? And it was a Democrat, John Wilkes Booth.
