If you'd told me in 2002 that a young liberal black man named Barack Hussein Obama would win in '08 |
|
I'd have said you were delusional.
What a fucking amazing country we live in!

Last spring, this site was full of people calling those of us who supported Obama traitors, who were throwing away the last chance of saving the world.

6. I clearly remember watching the DNC in 2004 and hearing Barack Obama speak. |
|
I sat in front of the TV, amazed at what I was hearing. And out loud, I said the words, "this man is going to be the first African-American President of the United States." I thought it would take more than four years, but I knew in my heart that he would do it.
