I stood in line for half an hour with African Americans and Asians and Anglos, all of us infected with this sense that today, in this moment, the real America stood up, patiently but determined, peaceful yet resolute, and said "enough".

What a great day to be an American! I feel so good I'd almost consent to going to a worship service at your church. :)
ReplyDeleteSeriously John, thanks for all you did in pushing for Obama. I love you for doing all you did.
I can't wait to see some class and dignity in the White House again.

That's the magic of the American system. Amazing.
What a beautiful family.
ReplyDeletePrayers for President elect Obama, that God would give wisdom, protection, and every blessing.
Also, that our country would be able to come together.
I keep bursting into tears!
