Can I just say that last night was one of the few times in my life, I was really, really proud to be an American. It really hits you when you think about the fact that we are less than 150 years out of the Civil War and only 40 years removed from the civil rights movement and now we have Barack Obama- President Elect. Now is not the time to let up though. There is still so much work to be done, and this country is nowhere near perfect. But for that brief moment last night, it sure felt nice.
