Miller is fascinated by the sustained brilliance with which Lincoln navigated the ensuing national convulsion, attempting to reconcile the obstreperous demands of political and military expediency, constitutional writ and, above all, his own galloping moral intelligence, though in places Miller's reverence for his subject borders on personal-ad territory (and he was tall!

This year, the candidates are focusing on Latinos, and brushing up on their Spanish. Rudy Giuliani and Mitt Romney both released Spanish language television ads in Florida that concluded with each of them stumbling through the Spanish version of "I approve this message."
