Back in 2009 director Ken Sheetz, who produces the acclaimed political series Kids Talk Politics, was feeling uneasy about the start of the Obama presidency. But the issues of Obama's seeming to not care about the people versus Wall Street, the rise of the Tea Party were much to heavy and complex to have the kids address.
After meeting respected Lincoln actor Tom Katsis at a film class the idea for Lincoln is back was born.
"What if Abe Lincoln was so upset with Dems and Reps alike he came back from the dead to haunt today politicians and the greedy coporations who have taken control of them?"
A popular YouTube station and website were created and a dozen videos of Abe hainting US landmarks was created.
Ken and Tom worked as a team to breathe life into Lincoln's ghost. Ken and Tom both report feeling Abe really does speak through them. Abe wants to be heard.
