The comparison goes a little far, but not altogether amiss to recall what Frederick Douglass said posthumously of Lincoln: "...Viewed from the genuine abolition ground, Mr. Lincoln seemed tardy, cold, dull, and indifferent; but measuring him by the sentiment of his country, a sentiment he was bound as a statesman to consult, he was swift, zealous, radical, and determined." http://teachingamericanhistory.org/library/index.asp?documentprint=39
