Who is Captain James T Kirk's favorite US President?

An incredibly realistic simulacrum of Kirk's hero, the American President Abraham Lincoln, greeted the Enterprise on stardate 5906.4. On the surface of the planet Excalbia, a silicon-based Excalbian re-created the historical figures Surak, Genghis Khan, Phillip Green, Kahless, and Zora. Kirk, Spock, Lincoln, and Surak were pitted against the others as means for the Excalbians to understand the nature and strength of good versus evil. (TOS: "The Savage Curtain")

Fot Kirk, Lincoln was the only logical choice. This seems to be one of the very few episodes I missed.

I remember the episode. Gene Roddenberry always wrote stories with a message

There’s an episode where the crew meets Abe Lincoln on a faraway planet. When they first encounter him, he’s floating through space sitting in a chair the way he does in the Lincoln Memorial. Pretty hilarious 😆

hellokitty collins, I did. Many times. Unfortunately, I forget. After many years I started watching the remastered version on HULU and discovered there were many things I've forgotten!
