The Day After


Today after I have read and listened to McCain's concession  speech and Obama's victory speech, I am proud to have taken part in this election. This morning I heard an interview on NPR with a 109 year-old texas woman, whose father had been a slave, recounting saving money to pay the poll-tax to vote during the great depression and now seeing an African-American president-elect. It's nice to have a president-elect that is inspiring in a time when we need hope. It also doesn't hurt that llamas like him.
