...from the wrath that was the McCain/Palin onslaught!
This was a speech for the ages, one that not only African Americans will look to as the epitome of hope and courage, but the rest of the world will look to this historic moment as the start of a new beginning - free from the shackles of old bigotry that was the Bush administration. As I sat on the floor of my boyfriend's lounge room, I knew that this was a moment that I would be proud to tell my grandchildren about years from now; as a time that the world stopped to see that faith and hope was blind to race, gender, religion and sexual orientation. As a proud Australian and world citizen, I cannot find the words to express how happy I am that so many dreams were realised yesterday, and that the best man for the job won.
The world is and will be a step closer to being a better place now. Obama/Biden is the dawn of a new, bright and hopeful day.
