He Had Me At "Hello"
6'1" 180lbs white male here.

“For the first time in my adult life, I am really proud of my country.”

And in tears.

THIS is the man to LEAD us. THIS is our TIME!

Know what the irony is? WE find ourselves in this glorious moment because so many died for a lie. DON'T EVER FORGET THAT. THEY DIED for this moment.

I shed tears of sadness and joy at the same time.

YES.I.WILL.

11. Too true. A lot of good people died to get us here.
I salute them, and I thank them. I have confidence that Obama will do his best to be worthy of their sacrifice ... for us all.

:patriot:

The United States is a LIBERAL Country.

14. I'm a chick
I was in tears at the end as well. This country needs a leader more desperately than at any time in its history.

This is his time.

15. Isn't it about time we had a President who inspires us?
Who appeals to our better nature, rather than our basest impulses?

Why yes. Yes it is.
