It has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?
I will forever remember November 4th, 2008 as a day the world observed in unison and as one, for a new direction for human progress. The hope U.S. citizens put into making sure there was not another 4 years of the same America, the world has come to know, was one of the most amazing actions committed by this country. Long voting lines, hours of waiting, reports of uncalibrated voting machines... it was all worth it. It is a true testament of the human spirit to look beyond the stagnant line of petty indifference and for a future that is beneficial for all.
John McCain's concession speech should not go unnoticed. He spoke eloquently. He pointed out to his supporters the time has come to put aside any animosity toward the new President-elect. An honorable notion by McCain speaks volumes of his character and perhaps his campaign did not reflect the man he was. None the less, the American people wanted a young, fresh face for their America. The America of the 21st century.
I congratulate Mr. Obama on one of, if not, the greatest human achievement. In not only becoming the President of the United States, but in bringing together the view of a world hungry for a better, more compassionate one.
It truly does have a nice ring to it...

I too enjoyed McCain's speech. He was humble, welcoming, and honorable towards Barack Obama.
I especially enjoyed when he said "He is going to be MY president." I think he had to swallow alot of pride and go with what matters most... the good of the American people.
