I just wanted to repost some of Obama’s acceptance speech.
“Let us remember that it was a man from this state who first carried the banner of the Republican Party to the White House – a party founded on the values of self-reliance, individual liberty, and national unity. Those are values we all share, and while the Democratic Party has won a great victory tonight, we do so with a measure of humility and determination to heal the divides that have held back our progress. As Lincoln said to a nation far more divided than ours, We are not enemies, but friends…though passion may have strained it must not break our bonds of affection.”
I thought maybe I had a photo of my trip to the Lincoln Memorial, but I guess I didn’t take any pictures b/c it felt too blasphemous. Standing up there with a bunch of foreign tourists with kids running around playing on the steps of it. Wonder if it’s like that at the Vatican…more LA things when I find my camera cord.
