On Voting from Abroad

11.05.08

Just watched Obama's victory speech. What a speaker. He really is inspirational. He did a great job of making the success one for all American people, while still maintaining the importance of the first black president and even citing specific examples in our history. He must have a great team of speech writers. Who dug up that story about the 106 year old lady for him?

Makes me proud to be an American - which in this time of economic crisis, and "world in peril" is what we will need to tackle the problems we face.

All of London is thrilled with the results. Yesterday, everyone I encountered asked me if I had voted. They were all for Obama. I feel like now when I say I am American, I can hold my head higher.
