Change. Yes, We Can.

I've never been one for politics at all. I've always been too confused or too caught up in my own little fantasy world full of video games and movies to truly ever give a crap. And I wasn't seeing change whenever anything happened. I'm 22 and am a black man. I have a father who is 83 years old and a mother who is 63. I have not seen the things that they have seen in their life and this has been a long road coming. For the first time in my life, I was both inspired and moved to tears. He gave the most powerful speech I have ever heard in my entire life. Some might debate Dr. Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech, but this is a new time and a new era with new ears to hear. I wasn't around for way back when, but I am around now. I couldn't be more proud to be not only a black man in America, but an American. I am with you every step of the way President Obama, as are so many more of us. It's been a long road just to get here and we have many more obstacles standing in our way. But, I believe that we can get there. Together. Change: yes, we can.
