Obama will not attend Gettysburg ceremony

Gettysburg National Military Park spokeswoman Katie Lawhon said Wednesday that President Obama will not be attending the Dedication Day Ceremony on Nov. 19 at the Gettysburg cemetery, as many had expected. Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell will represent the administration, she said. This year’s ceremony is considered particularly special because it comes on the 150th anniversary of President Abraham Lincoln’s delivery of his best-known speech, the Gettysburg Address...more  

I guess that "of the people, by the people, for the people" stuff would be embarrassing to the President.
