Senator Barack Obama made history yesterday by becoming the first African-American president of the United States. His quest to being elected the 44th president has been one full of drama and pleasant surprises. With full force media coverage for more than a year, i'm sure most of us are pretty familiar with his backgrounds, his struggles and his successes by now.
And i believe many of you must have watched his victory speech. I know several with tears inside their eyes while listening to this great speaker. Obama brings hope and confidence with his powerful words.
"So let us summon a new spirit of patriotism; of service and responsibility where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not only ourselves, but each other."
Does that sound familiar? It actually reminds me of the famous Kennedy quote, which i presume all of you should know. And this election and its outcome is a truly amazing episode of the history of our generation. I hope we can all move forward starting now.
