History

I have so many thoughts and things I want to write about this election. You my lucky friends get to read it in bullets.

  • America is changing, it is beautiful to see.
  • Tony this morning woke me up at 3:30am so joyful about Obama winning.
  • I did not have the heart to wake him last night.
  • Terrell knows why this is historic
  • He wants to know what money Obama will be on
  • I cried when the race was called
  • As the mother of biracial boys now I can honestly say to them someday you could be president
  • McCain's speech was very nice, his supporters booing though not so much
  • Thank God the troops will come home now!
  • Terrell asked me if he is African American too
  • Wow just WOW I never really thought I would live to see a black president WOW
  • I am tearing up just thinking about it
  • Jayden will never know a world in which a black man could not be president
  • 40 years ago my marriage would have been illegal in Virginia and several other states
  • Oh how far we have come and how much farther we have to go
  • WOW

We are living in historic times. I agree with what you said about McCain. I thought he showed great grace. It was wonderful to see Democracy really work.

Yes, just yes to all of it. It was a wonderful, momentous night. I have never been so proud to be an American as I was last night.

You are far more optimistic than I am. I hope you're right.
