"Rosa Parks sat so that Martin Luther King could march. King marched so that Obama could run. Obama ran so that the future generations can fly!"
hello, ara, appreciate recieving the well wishes, and join with you in cosigning the sentiments expressed. this was the outcome we all have worked for and it feels great. just got off the phone with an ally in nigeria, and also have friends in germany and other pasts of europe and the mideast, who are rejoicing in this news, and truly appreciate the impact this has on the entire globe. for ourselves, it is imperative to pick up communication again with our friends in europe, mideast, africa, haiti, and far parts to bring the necessary human rights actions that will begin to relieve the starvation, medical aid needs, and materials aids... i see obama helping to make the vista and peace corp programs a comeback in a far more advanced way than before... as we understand the world has in so many ways gotten smaller and our friendship circles richer. blessings and i look forward to our developing this links the stronger in the months ahead. respectfully dorinda moreno fuerzamundial On 11/5/08, Ara Amirkhanian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Congratulations to ALL, whether you participated in the election, voted > for > Obama, or not. > > I know that with the help and direction - not blind complacency as it was > customary for the last 40 years or so, and especially the last 8 bloody > shameful years - of an involved citizenry (as it ought to be) Barak Obama, > My President (not only the first Black President of the US but also the > first truly Elected President since 2000) will prove to be one of America's > greatest choices for that important office. > > Even before the results were announced last night the anticipation of this > historic moment had already made a gigantic impact in the way the US in > general and American people in particular are viewed elsewhere in the > world. > Despite ALL the safeguards by progressive organizations, election watch > dogs, and political groups that were set in place to make sure this > election > too was not hijacked by the neo-cons, and evangelical right again, for the > third time, this was a great moment in the history of MAN.
