Those in witness, those who have shared in the struggle, those who believe let the tears roll down their face.
With that one acclimation and that one word "acceptance," the world changed. Now the work begins to see who we might become. This is only the beginning the job now is for those who believe to take this change all the way to the White House.

Valeria, it was so sweet indeed to see the emotion of those that were at the democratice convention once he was nominated............so sweet.
We are so thrilled in our house. We have been glued to the TV. When I think of all that my in-laws lived through in Mississippi and to think in their life time - it just leaves me speechless.
I can't watch till 9 every night - I'll have to find it on computer.
Thanks for posting. I'm posting tomorrow.
I was thrilled with Barack's speech. I may be a Canadian, but I am very excited about your coming election, as many other non-Americans are too. Barack was passionate and so very inspirational. I am so happy for you guys as I would love to see the USA make a real, positive, healing change from the inside and in the eyes of the rest of the world looking in.
I admit I too was moved to tears. Barack Obama has made history and he is exactly what this country needs right now :) Maria
"Lovely!" There are no adequate words coming to my mind that would do my heart justice so I will use my Dad's favorite word that he used from his spirit..."Lovely!"
