    "Abraham Lincoln's mother Nancy Hanks was claimed to be of African descent (Ethiopian).

    According to historian William E. Barton, a rumor "current in various forms in several sections of the South" was that Lincoln's biological father was Gorge Enloe, which Barton dismissed as "false". According to Doug Wead, Enloe publicly denied this connection to Lincoln but is reported to have privately confirmed it. Another claim was that Lincoln was "part Negro", but that was unproven. According to Lincoln's law partner William H. Herndon, Lincoln had "very dark skin" although "his cheeks were leathery and saffron-colored" and "his face was ... sallow," and "his hair was dark, almost black". Abraham Lincoln described himself c. 1838–39 as "black" and his "complexion" in 1859 as "dark", but whether he meant either in an ancestral sense is unknown. The Charleston Mercury described him as being "of ... the dirtiest complexion".

    Never have I heard this rumor before in my life, until listening to D*** Gregory. I highly suggest listening to any of the long-form videos he recorded before he died, sharing his perspective and knowledge with us for preservation. Take it for what it is, you may not think it's all accurate but it's fascinating to listen to.

    I can definitely see it if I look at photos of him now that I've heard this. I still don't necessarily believe it 100% but I can see it being true

    maybe he had a kind of sympathy with the slaves because of that idk, there might be a reason behind it

    thought this was a smear tactic for his campaign?

    It could be both true and used against him in a campaign. No reason for them to be mutually exclusive.
