i'm so glad that Obama won.
change for america
change for the world
here's to the new dawn of leadership.
"this victory isn't the change we seek,
it is only the chance for us to make that change"
"yes, we can."
- President Barack Obama
"Barack Obama will take the oath of office on the steps of the Capitol Building, where he will become the first African American president in the US history. The thing that inspires me is that those steps were built by slaves. they built those steps not knowing that one day someone who looks like them will be able to stand and take that oath of office. that for me is the moment that we can finally say: we're free at last. we've freed ourselves at last."
- excerpt taken from "Obama's Place in Black History"
after watching the news clips on abcnews.com, i cannot help but feel the rush of adrenaline. we've witnessed the heralding of a new and most significant milestone, not just in the history of america, but also in the history of the world.
we're on the brink of change. for the better.
