6. Although I am not religious, I am very spiritual person a prayer would be
nice. Because instead of praying to a Jesus that hates fags or an Allah that thinks we should kill all the infidels, we will all be united in the hope for the goodness and peace that Jesus, Mohammad, Budda all taught about.

I think watching this convention has been one of the most spiritual and beautiful moments of my life. To look at that crowd of old and young, rich and poor, famous and unknown, black and white and asian and hispanic and arab I felt very spiritual. I felt like I was witnessing love and tolerance, I felt like that is an America I am already a part of and I am very proud.

A prayer would usually bother me, but at the DNC I know that we are all asking our different gods (or no-gods) for a better world.
