this is the first time i'm commenting tho i read your lj quite often. anyway, more of obama's magic here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrp-v2tHaDo i actually used this for gp under racism, which totally didn't come out, but very useful and inspirational nevertheless.
what i like most was how he called discrimination "misguided anger" and clearly being realistic, yet optimistic when he said " I would not be running for President if I didn't believe with all my heart that this is what the vast majority of Americans want for this country. This union may never be perfect, but generation after generation has shown that it can always be perfected. And today, whenever I find myself feeling doubtful or cynical about this possibility, what gives me the most hope is the next generation - the young people whose attitudes and beliefs and openness to change have already made history in this election.
