On Obama US Election Night '08

On November 5th, 2008, just after midnight and Barack Obama's speech began and he accepted his win, Americans and the world exhaled, as he took over with quiet, relaxed energy, respect, and centeredness.

On Michelle Obama's dress that night, red and black, it was beautiful and appropriate and a new way of seeing a First Lady Elect; and it was the way I'd seen her anyway, with energy bold as that red color--generative and full of heart. The other team was exhausted in that respect.
