This is so important and I post about it whenever it comes up. Lincoln was an attorney and at that time in the Republic attorneys were prohibited from being president. When they elected Lincoln president they made him president of the corporation and not the republic. This is what made the southern states walk out of Congress and that is really what ended the republic. Lincoln forced some southern people into Congress to make it appear as he was keeping the union together and I suppose he did keep the union together but the republic was dead the day the south walked out and Congress was adjourned without setting a day to reconvene. Everything after that has been done under the corporation and not the republic.
This answers so many questions about why the USA is the way it is now and how we got here. I wish more people knew about these things and actually cared because if they did we could probably fix it.
“Bar” means “whole body of lawyers ... the legal profession.”
It also means the place where the business of court is done. “Bar” in this sense had become synonymous with “court” by 1330.
In 1559, “bar” literally meant the railing that separated people on the bench from those conducting law on the other side.
After 1600, “bar” was popularly assumed to mean the bar in a courtroom, which was the wooden railing marking off the area around the judge's seat and where a barrister stood to plead his prisoner’s case.

Attorneys are given the title of Esquire from the BAR, British Accreditation Registry. Thus a foreign title of nobility.
