Yes, We Can

It was so incredibly exciting to see all of the major networks declare Barack Obama to be the 44th President of the United States just a few moments ago. This is a spectacular moment in our nation's history and the next four years will be eye-opening for a lot of people--in the very best way. 

Senator Obama will certainly give a spectacular speech later this evening, but I want to post the end of the inspirational speech he gave in New Hampshire in January of this year, because that speech captures so eloquently what this race has been about, at least for me and I hope for Jamey: 

"And, together, we will begin the next great chapter in the American story, with three words that will ring from coast to coast, from sea to shining sea: Yes, we can." 

So, as Senator Obama said just before he said goodnight to us at the rally we attended in Houston years ago, "Let's go change the world."
