I truly, truly do believe that we will easily. I'll put my reputation on it.

Every time I called Illinois Midland, people weren't quite sure where the paintings were. When I was referred to Genesee and Wyoming, nobody (there) knew what this was.

I said no. But I lost that argument to Sara and my wife.

The paintings were all over the place, on the walls, hanging.

I feel very, very strongly that the city of Decatur has a wonderful heritage to be able to offer not only to the state but the nation and internationally.

What historical purpose would it serve? It (wouldn't) change the facts of how he became a great president. I would fall on the side of leaving President Lincoln alone.
