I am so proud today. I think of my Grandfather who was born in 1900, an educated black man in Virginia who couldn’t vote unimpeded until the Voting Rights Act of 1965. I wish he could have lived to see this day in history. I also think of all my other ancestors that struggled to do the best for their family in America, in a time when it wasn’t the land of the free for ALL of its people. Its a remarkable day.
Congratulations President Elect Obama!!
