Abe Lincoln Watching fellow bookworms, a bust of Kentucky native Abraham Lincoln sits on a Kentucky library windowsill. President Abraham Lincoln was a learned self-taught man and lawyer. The still-standing and well-kept home of the wealthy parents of his Kentucky wife is in downtown Lexington, not too far away. A replica of the humble log cabin home of Abe's grandmother is west of here in a wooded area. His parents were married in the nearby town of Springfield. And of course, he was born and lived west of here on the family farm in Hodgenville. Mr. Lincoln's native state did not elect him President nor his Democratic political foe, Mr. Stephen Douglas. Right before the Civil War, both Republicans and Democrats were too radical for most Kentuckians. Although Kentucky voters as a whole liked having slaves, Kentuckians overwhelmingly voted instead for the candidate of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitutional_Union_Party_(United_States)" rel="noreferrer nofollow">Constitutional Union Party</a>, a third-party formed for the 1860 Presidential election that was against secession over the slavery issue. It was organized by former Whig party members who wanted a union above all else and adherence to a U.S. Constitution.
