When Sen. Barack Obama departed his plane in Denver on Sunday, he carried some periodicals in his right hand, visible in a detail of a photograph by Helen H. Richardson of The Denver Post.

One was the Oct. 27 Time magazine cover headlined "Does Temperament Matter?" which features images of Obama and Abraham Lincoln in the top panels, with FDR and Sen. John McCain in the bottom panels.

Obama expressed admiration for Lincoln in a 2005 Time magazine essay, which was critiqued by Peggy Noonan.
