#BestPresident
By Bob Odenkirk and Nate Odenkirk
Thank you for electing me as your sixteenth President. I will do great job! #bestpresident
President for one day and more of the South already thretaning to secede. Being treated very unfairly by Slave States, more than any other President!
That loser Jeff Davis (fake president) is going to get whats coming to him! No mercy for double-crossers.
Just offered the excellent Robert E. Lee of Virginia our top post @Army. He is a world-class general from West Point (very smart). I pick the best people!
Robert the Rat made a very poor decision . . . good! I dont want a third-rate general leading our fine men! #bestpresident
Stovepipe hat too heavy, filled with legal papers, Bible quotations &articles of war. South, test me, I will sign!1!! #bestpresident
Bible not opposed to slavery enough. Need good quotes to encourage peoplecome on aincent scribes! #bestpresident
@JeffersonDavis The South was never good. Worst Part of America dead weight never very popular! Fake seccesion wont work, nice try!!!!
Son @WillieLincoln dead @ 11yo. Very #sad, will b taking week off #bestpresident
Many say I am depressed. Infact I am the happiest President who ever lived, because I no longer have to argue w/ South . . . bad place! #alwayssmiling #honestabe
Sorry @JeffersonDavis I created #bestpresident, you cant use! Will sue after war #manyliveslost
Telegraph operators spreading fake message that big N (many peoples name for the North) did very poorly at #Antedam . . . nope! Telegraphs unreliable. We won, not one life lost. Trust me, Im the President! #tallestpresident
Confederacy hoping for @FrenchEmpire and @UK to buy thier (very itchy) cotton. I know for a fact that Our great allies know that big N cotton is better! #buybigN
Huge welcome to newest stateWest Virginia! Did not want to join failing secceson (fake country) . . . great people! #winningsoon

If Our Great General grant was a heavy drinker (and he is not) he would still beat Robert the Rat!
Just got reelected. Big win! Thank you very much. Glad #south could not vote, they do not like me! #bestpresident
civil war won by big n!!!!! People are saying I should have a huge statue of me. I say yes!!
My loyal supporters say I would look great on the penny . . . @SalmonPChase are you listening?
Reconstruction will be a very beautiful process and Every state will be given a chance to come back into our union. Tough but fair!
