Mr. President

WOW.

Not sure what surprises me or warms my heart more…the fact that Obama is THE Democratic nominee for President…or…the fact that the fight to BE the Democratic nominee is over!!!!!!

History has been made. To be sure, I believe new history is made every day, in some way, shape, form or fashion. But this? This is something ELSE.

But this? This exceeds all. An African-American clinching the nomination of a major political party for President of the United States. Senator Barack Hussein Obama has effectively shattered a barrier more than two centuries old to become the first black candidate ever nominated by a major political party for the nation’s highest office.

My friend N called me last night to tell me that his uncle was in tears at the POSSIBILITY that an African-American was this close to being THE resident at the house on Pennsylvania Avenue. His uncle is 94 years old. That made me tear up too.

Wow.

Hold on to your seats folks…it’s about to be on and poppin’.
