Yes We Can!!

I've never shed a tear over any political speech, until Obama's. I've never felt so much hope in what Americans can actually achieve when we finally put our tattered history behind us and try to move forward together, until this election. I've never hoped so hard for truth to come from rhetoric, until this beginning.

I don't know what the next four years will bring, but I do know that my children can look at the leader of this nation and see someone who looks more like them than he does me. That makes me extremely proud, happy, and overwhelmed with gratitude for the opportunities granted in a democracy. May God direct this man as he attempts to refresh this nation that has been so stripped of positive leadership for so long.
