Obama's acceptance speech

I am so tired today. I sat up to watch the live broadcast on the BBC of the election coverage. And I wished I wass back in the US to celebrate it with my American freinds.

He mentioned disabled people - I did not believe my ears-for the first time, not only would we have a black President of the USA but one who mentioned disabled people in his first speech as Presiden elect.Wow!

Thanks to Scott, he pointed out this blog entry to me - Andrea's Shettles's blog entry thanking Barrack Obama.

Quoting Barrack Obama from his speech:

"It's the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Hispanic, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled, Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been just a collection of individuals or a collection of red states and blue states.
"We are, and always will be, the United States of America.

Let us see what he will be able to deliver.
