Reaction to "A More Perfect Union"

I am sitting here about to cry. This is a hope that I have never felt before. A belief that my life and the lives of those who come after me can be judged as the life of a human being and not the life of a black man. That Dr. King’s dream is more than a dream now. I am thankful to God that Barack Obama has the courage, the audacity, to tell the truth on such a large scale. I am thankful for God for creating a Barack Obama, a man with the family, life experiences and education to give voice to all people. For the first time in my life, as I cry, I thank God that I am an American.

Faith, Hope, and Love,

CA
