An American election should be about hope, and possibility, and the fulfilling of the promise made by Jefferson and kept by Lincoln and Roosevelt and Kennedy that this experiment would forever be the "signal of arousing men to burst the chains, under which monkish ignorance and superstition had persuaded them to bind themselves, and to assume the blessings and security of self-government."
