June 3, 2008 was historic for every American. Barack Obama winning the Democratic Nomination for President transcends every race, gender, age, religion, and political affiliation. I used to be very militant, and overly incessant about the fact that racial relations in this country, OUR country have progressed in theory, but not in practice. Now, I have living, breathing evidence to the contrary. We have taken a step. As a nation, we have spoken. We have let it be known that intelligence, character, charisma, and ability are worth more that the color of one's skin or ancestry. This is big. Like Michelle Obama, this is truly one of the first moments in my adult lifetime that I have been really proud of my country. Work done and work more to do. The task of changing the world has only just begun. Obama '08! Yours in the struggle.--keo
