This morning when I woke up,as I opened my eyes, I had a feeling of happiness I have not felt in a long time, and when I became fully awake, I remembered, and the level of euphoria was just the same as last night watching you speak in Chicago. I feel better about things now. Things were getting so bad I was not sure what to tell my children anymore, and had lost much hope for a decent future for myself and my family.
This has not been just an election for a president, this is the beginning of a new world and a new society. I think now people are waking up and realizing we have to do something before it's too late and any hope of a fair and decent life will be lost. When I see you, I do not see a black man but a man who really cares the US and everyone in it. You is about doing what is right,even when others do not agree. I feel you are going to be the one to change things for the better. You are not going to be just another president, you are going to have a lasting influence in our world. You will be the one to change our world as we know it. I can finally breathe easy knowing things will change!!! Thanks for stepping forward to help make things right again Obama.....I realize you are a modest person, but at least have a little dance of happiness in private.... our hopes and future are with you.
