THAT was how a President addresses the people....
...Barack Obama will be the next President.

Deep down, Bill and Hillary know it now too.

2. Man -- no kidding
Wow. Just wow.

I have heard him speak a few dozen times so far -- but this was powerful like none before.

3. I was praying for Gore, giving thanks for Kucinich, enthusiastic for
Edwards, and generally dispirited after they all did not happen.

I know that I will vote for the nominee. If it is Senator Clinton it will be hard. I said it then, and I say it now: I will never forgive the war votes.

But tonight I got inspired again.
I just heard a self confident presidential address with lots of meat and side dishes.
The thought to have my commander in chief stand up and speak like that, the thought that I don't have to run and turn my sound DOWN but want to turn it UP when my President comes on is a prospect I can get very enthused about.

Phenomenal speech.
Yes he can.

because I am right behind you.

4. It made me cry - not because of him, and not over him...but because of the possibilities
that he offers to us...to be better...so much better...I cried for the future that I want for us, and that I envision is possible - now...

It was a beautiful speech...

7. I really enjoy watching...
the videos on YouTube. I love seeing him speak, but seeing the people blows me away.
