IT'S ABOUT TIME!!!

2 hours. The time I waited in line yesterday to enthusiastically vote for Barack Obama.

16 months. The time I have spent supporting Obama and believing in hope and change.

More than 16 years. The time that has passed since I walked the halls of my high school everyday with the words of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s famous "I Have A Dream" speach on my folder for everyone to see; from the moment I ordered my class graduation ring with MLK on one side and world peace on the other; that I have felt inspired by and influenced by the Civil Rights Movement; that I have prayed that one day the United States of America would vote a minority into the presidency.

At this moment in time. I have never been more proud of my country.
