Artist's Comments

(I couldn't sleep. So I made this.)

"We know the battle ahead will be long, but always remember that no matter what obstacles stand in our way, nothing can stand in the way of the power of millions of voices calling for change.

We have been told we cannot do this by a chorus of cynics…they will only grow louder and more dissonant. We’ve been asked to pause for a reality check. We’ve been warned against offering the people of this nation false hope.

But in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope."
--Barack Obama



BRB, CRYING FOREVER.

See, I love this. That yes, people outside of America do care. What we do doesn't just effect us, it effects everyone else too. It makes me really want to be better as a country so that when I go abroad, I can proudly say, "I'm from America." :D

THANK YOU. :hug:

It's yourself you should be thanking. What you've stated there is a wonderful mindset I hope every American can come to have... and with Obama I think they will :D

gffdgkh YESSSS! I'M CANADIAN but I stayed up until 11 and watched a live map of the polls. It was so nerve wracking! Mccain kept gaining on him but Obama thoroughly kicked his ass in the end! I got to witness A HISTORICAL MOMENT~! I only wish I had heard his speech!

I got up ultra early this morning for a reason I couldn't grasp. When I got down in the living room, my mind told me "TURN ON THE GODDAMN TV", and so I did... Just in time to see the Barack Obama's speech live.

It was absolutely win (to use unprofessional terms). I've been thinking "yes, we did" all day, it would absolutely not get out of my head.
This is a definite fav. :heart:
