We have to promise that this country, under God, will be free again. We have to promise that a country that is made up of the people, was created... A battle of this war was fought right here where we are standing. Now, we are at war with ourselves, based on the idea that everyone is equal No one is going to care or remember the words we say here, but no one can ever forget what those soldiers did here. We have come to devote part of this battlefield as a cemetery for the soldiers that died here so the nation can live. We have to promise that the soldiers here did not die for nothing. It's up to us to dedicate ourselves to saving the country, and remind ourselves that people have died for this cause. It's up to the rest of us that are still alive to dedicate ourselves to finishing what these soldiers have started. It is the right thing to do. We can't even come close. The Founding Fathers created a brand new (independent) country here, 87 years ago
