Thanks for the kudos gents. Although many did not vote for Obama, he will unify the country, both supporters and non-supporters. Planly obvious by the crowds. That is what is called for at the moment and down the road. Although we feel refreshed and renewed, I only hope the rest of the world feels the same. The task at hand will not be easy. Obern liked the speech, said it was not full of flowers, yes, the dogma of Washington...some of the flowers and sugarcoating. This is what needs to be overcome. But, yes, the task at hand was dealt without the sugar or the flowers. This speech was much different than past speeches, it looked like he has done some serious study of past history. Where we succeeded and where we failed. A great foundation so as not to repeat where we have failed. He has been given the key to the city, I think he will liven up the town. Godspeed to Obama and God Bless America.
As a side note, today I went to the IMAX theater and watched International Space Station (3D). It is beyond me how many countries can cooperate, make pieces of the station, deploy them via shuttle or Russian rocket yet here on terra-firma, we can not agree on anything. It is astonishing.
