• I think a comma is needed in the hook after "from within", else its good to go. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 05:13, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

• I'm not sure that it does need a comma, but thanks for the review. I added a photo of Lincoln. – Muboshgu (talk) 05:38, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

• Comment: Would the hook not be better as (Alt 1) "... that during his 1838 Lyceum address, Abraham Lincoln (pictured) warned of a tyrant overtaking the United States from within?" This would make the new article the main subject of the hook. Del_♉sion23 (talk) 18:45, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

• I can get behind that. It might help get it more page views. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:58, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
