DB Comedy Presents THE ELECTABLES

President 16 - Abraham Lincoln, Part 1

Episode Summary

Did you ever wonder whether we knew so much about Abraham Lincoln that there was nothing left to know? Maybe we know so much we can adapt what we know about Lincoln to what we would like him to be! Deep, huh? Sure - and funny, too! Join us as we welcome a team of historians, led by Guest Historian Dr. Matthew Norman, for the first of a two-part comedic journey (part one up to his election) of Abraham Lincoln, Mega-President!
