Tomorrow we stand to believe in this nation, after 8 years of a nightmare, like seeing the clouds threaten to forever destroy the light this nation offers. I am not a writer of great words, but I know what I feel, and I feel pride, and hope and dreams coming true again. That, finally, as a nation, we can show the world we are that place of Hope and dreams. We live by our words and bound by them. That no one has the right to take away our hope. Yet as their were evil men that started the ball, we as a nations, keep it going, so on the edge of forever, we all stand and we all fall but we have to do it together. Government is FOR the people, OF the people BY the people. Meaning we need to do and not watch.

For too long we sat in the darkness of evil men, trying to take our rights, trying to take away each of our rights. To shut the voices we were given by greater men, like Jefferson, Lincoln, Roosevelt (both), and JFK. They wanted us to live in fear and for too long we did. We let them take away our rights, and our votes and our dreams. For FAR too long we let them scare us. Then we all woke from that nightmare, as a city sank to rise only partly and a shell of itself. We saw the men behind the masks.
We did allow this to happen. We didn't, those that saw from the start the evil, get into those streets like Dr. King did. We didn't allow ourselves to go to Jail or worst to keep this nation from sleeping in the nightmares. The nation should have NEVER fallen asleep, so we all need to stand, take the hope we now have found in a man that is the perfect American, a melting of past and future of different faiths and upbringings. For President-elect Obama is a melting pot that shows us, that reminds us what is good about this nation. Yet as he fails or prevails so well each and every person in this nation. WE have to fight, WE have to give, WE have to work to make this nation better. To heal to grow to be great again.
I am not talking about power, I am talking about soul. We were a nation with a soul once, not long ago. We now have to dig deep into our own lives find strength we though as gone and help this nation find it's soul again. So that children on the streets of New York, LA, Charlotte, Mason, and smallville don't go hungry or be sick. That they don't have do things to make us throw up, just so they can eat that night. So grown ups don't have to die alone, and cold in streets, thinking they are in a some hell that is in their mind. That a mother doesn't have worry about the cold her child has, because there will be health care for that child.
WE as a nation as a whole have to give money, give time and give a bit of us, to have it sewn forever in the fabric of the nation. We can not let others do it. Not this time. We don't have the time for "others" to do what needs to be done. When there is a call to action we must take it. Like this nations as done time and time again, from it's birth, and action we will take, Yes we Can do this. We must do this, or this nation may be lost on the shores of history. Yes we can make this right again. Yes we can hope again, and Yes we can do again.
Thank you.
