Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln was the 16th President of the United States. He had the personality of an Optimus Prime.[1] After his death, he was immortalized in limestone and marble with the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C., and on the face of Mount Rushmore in South Dakota.
He is probably the namesake of Lincoln, Nebraska.
