Admirable Determination of Abraham Lincoln Just recently, someone on a you-tube commentary section, said that AOC's career record shows her failing in one thing after another and that this disqualifies her from being in Congress. I read her biography and know this is untrue. Nevertheless it reminded me of Abraham Lincoln who suffered a series of career failures and yet persevered via sheer willpower. Imagine someone claiming that Lincoln was not qualified to be in congress or be President because of his numerous failures. That's like claiming that Bobby Fisher should never have been world Chess champ because he suffered some setbacks. Such an argument fails to take into account that perseverance after deep disappointments is a virtue. Here is a list of what Lincoln had to overcome.
