Senator Joseph McCarthy delivered the <em>Wheeling, West Virginia</em> speech on February 9, 1950. Right there he reminded Abraham Lincoln’s phrase “when a great democracy is destroyed, it will not be from enemies from without, but rather because of enemies from within.”

This argument was a key moment in McCarthy speech because he grabbed the audience’s attention and made a clear point from the beginning. As Lincoln's did in his “Lyceum Address”, Senator McCarthy warned that the danger to the U. S. was not foreign menaces but domestic.

The speech was delivered in Lincoln Day, and when he stated that they were there to “celebrate the one hundred forty-first birthday of one of the greatest men in American history”, he wanted to reinforce that Lincoln was an outstanding man who influenced America and warned about the internal problems of the country.

This would depend on your beliefs. Personally, I believe it was a cruel injustice to the Cherokee, and that the Trail of Tears was nowhere near necessary to advance civilization. However, this question is asking for your point of view on the matter. Using the information you have learned, reflect on the event and come to your own conclusion. Hope this helped! ^.^
