History has been made

[pep_singer]

Last night, history was made. To quote Obama, "Change has come to America."

This was my first election to vote in (I'm 18). I will never forget it. Even though my state's electorial votes went to John McCain, I helped Obama with the Popular Vote, and that's all I can ask for. I have never felt more proud to be an American, to be an African-American

*found this through canadabear's flist.* Isn't it awesome. I still can't believe it this morning.

Neither can I. :)

I was just so excited. I truly felt like an American, and it's a damn good feeling.

Congratulations on your first time voting!

I'm 20 and it's my first time as well. I will never forget this. We are officially a part of history and I'm so proud right now.

I love this quote so much.

"Rosa Parks sat so Martin Luther King could walk. Martin Luther King walked so Obama could run. Obama's running so we all can fly."

Beautiful, beautiful quote.

I'm glad this was my first election.

I cried three times last night for my own self-realization that came with Obama's win, and for how proud our Civil Rights leaders of the past would be.

It's just a really good time for America!

Indeed it is. I'm also thrilled with how Congress turned out as well. :)

I mean, really, the tears wouldn't stop flowing, and they still haven't.
