Obama reminded all of us
Last night his speech was one of the best speeches I have heard...ever. And even better than that, he served to remind us just what the US stands for. In the past 3 1/2 years, I stood on the outside (as a canuck) looking in dismay, pain and anger at what the current administration has done.
Obama's speech, more than the others (sorry but that is JMHO) gave me a sense of hope.....no his words - "an audacity of hope" that the foundation that created the US will be strong enough to overcome the current deliberate erosion caused by this administration.

Thank you Senator Obama. Hope feels good doesn't it? It feels far far better than skepticism, mistrust, and anger. Yep, thanks again.

1. Gotta keep this kicked to the top!
Hope.

Big word there. I haven't really had any in my life for almost four years now.

DU allowed me to survive without it.

John Kerry, John Edwards, and Barack Obama have restored it to me.
