I am aware that there were rumors about Bush being behind the 911 attacks. I am curious to know if this is true. I am also aware that Abraham Lincoln helped end slavery. Unfortunately I know very little information about our history. This is why I am looking forward to learning as much as I can this year, to be informed.
