In 1836, Lincoln became a lawyer and was famous for being hard-working and honest. He believed that the US stood for freedom for all. He wanted to become a senator (参议员). In 1858, Lincoln debated(争论) against Stephen Douglas who was also a candidate for the Senate from Illinois.
Because of the Lincoln-Douglas debates, Lincoln became known across the country. Then he decided to run for the presidency in 1860. At last he ran against Stephen Douglas and two other candidates.
Lincoln took the oath (誓言) of office to become president of the United States on March 4, 1861. It was a difficult time to be president.
