I suppose he gathers it from the shoulders of generations of black slaves whose prayers are based on hope, strength and faith that deliverance will someday come. This is their day and the world is in awe.<BR/><BR/>It's a beautiful day for hope and true equality.palma tayonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03536900691140986421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4069885321069568061.post-71242820929392370082009-01-21T19:09:00.000+07:002009-01-21T19:09:00.000+07:00i can see that the time has come for a resurgence...i can see that the time has come for a resurgence of beautifully-made speeches. When was the last time I was profoundly moved by an inaugural speech?...or any political speech for that matter. I guess it is also helped by the fact that the image of Barack Obama is one of positive Change! I really hope and pray that this shining moment be constant and true throughout the years!<BR/><BR/>Thanksnutarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17531471405851283868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4069885321069568061.post-70297856590171678282009-01-21T11:10:00.000+07:002009-01-21T11:10:00.000+07:00I stayed up late last night to watch Obama's inaug...I stayed up late last night to watch Obama's inauguration.<BR/><BR/>The words of Rev. Lowery were really powerful and a highlight of the event. It's not just the words he said but how he spoke it.<BR/><BR/>I didn't enjoy the poem, primarily because I didn't like the way it was read.<BR/><BR/>As for Obama's speech, good but his address when he got elected was so much better and powerful.<BR/><BR/Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04077595570528664240noreply@blogger.com
