The most famous definition of democracy as “Government of the People, for the People and by the People” was articulated by Abraham Lincoln in his Gettysburg Address, delivered during the American Civil War on November 19, 1863.

Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address is one of the most important speeches in American history and provides a concise and powerful definition of democratic government.

While Thomas Jefferson was a principal author of the Declaration of Independence and a key figure in establishing American democracy, and George Washington was the first US President, this particular phrase is unequivocally attributed to Abraham Lincoln. John F. Kennedy was a later President known for his inaugural address quote, “Ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country.”
