YES WE CAN -- AND YES WE DID!

TODAY IS A GREAT DAY FOR AMERICA and for the world.  Yesterday, Senator Obama lost his grandmother.  But perhaps somehow, she knows and is smiling with many of us on this historic day.  Senator Obama has accepted his nomination as the President-elect!  Congratulations to Senator Obama and his family, Senator Biden and his family, and to all the people who worked so hard for their success!  Congratulations to the citizens of many nations who were rooting for the victory of the Democratic Party.

All year I have asked the question, "Can't we all just get along?"  Today I got my answer:

         YES WE CAN -- AND YES WE DID!

President-elect Obama started as a human rights activist in Chicago, and health care is one of his main concerns.  Vice President-elect Biden is a mental health advocate.  We can hope that when it comes to imprisoning mental patients for reason of their disabilities, things might be about to CHANGE!
