18. he was in the moment while giving this speech

- and i am very touched by his honesty and love for our nation - and for all americans. i appreciate his call to action and i was inspired to action.

when the movie "selma" was being filmed i heard oprah comment about the timing of the movie - that it was made at the right time, a time of power. there is a synergy which occurs at the "right time of power" - adding impetus to the action taken.

despite all of the attacks on the president - he shines reason, justice, and strength.

and of course, there was the inspired poem about love at his first inauguration ~ the audacity of it thrilled me. that kind of love can achieve great things and is never wrong.

president barak hussein obama will mark a great place in our history because as a nation, we SHALL & will continue to overcome.

thank you for your op, sheshe
