Dream Come True

“I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.”
Martin Luther King, 1963

I drank quite a lot of Scotch last night so it’s all a bit of a blur after Obama won Ohio, that’s when I knew he was on his way to victory. The one thing that really stuck in my mind though was seeing Jesse Jackson crying his eyes out, this a guy who was standing next to Martin Luther King when he was shot so I can only imagine the emotion he was feeling.

When I uploaded this song yesterday I was worried that I was counting my chickens before they hatched, I’ve had enough elections break my heart in the past not to get too confident (I’m looking at you Neil Kinnock and John Kerry) but as Obama himself might say, sometimes you just have to believe.

Anyway, now that’s finally over I can get back to doing some actual work, including this damn blog.

  1. Aw, this was an extremely nice post. Spending some time and actual effort to generate a top notch article… but what can I say… I procrastinate a whole lot and never manage to get nearly anything done.
