History occurred last night.
It's finally official.
Obama is finally the democratic nominee for commander-in-chief!
It was a celebration for many black men and women who figured they would NEVER live to see a day where a black man could be on the verge of becoming president.
What really pleased me about last night were all the different nationalities in unison. There was even a group of bearded white guys holding up a sign that read, "Rednecks for Obama." I kept waiting for everything to be interrupted and for someone to say..."OK, that's it. This whole campaign was all a joke." I just couldnt' believe it was happening.
45 years ago....it was King who did it. I wasn't there....but I'm here for this. And it was the most powerful thing I've ever experienced.
I'll man up and admit...at one moment, I felt a tear or two build up. Oh shyt...gotta think about football and beer. (Works every mf time.) Then you go over to someone else and say, "WTF you crying for?!"
There were tears everywhere. Tears of joy, tears of pride, and tears of hope for a better future.
There's just one problem, though.
Obama got me feelin' all patriotic and shyt. I'm feelin' like runnin' out and changin' the WORLD.
I'm ready to do some volunteer work, start building homes, and signing up unregistered voters. But after 2 weeks of the Olympics and a week of the Democratic National Convention...
...I need a mf nap!!
