Not sure if there will ever again be an election like this one in my lifetime, and I am so proud of my country right now. Many people wanted to know why I was going to vote for Obama, and the reasons are many, but most importantly he inspires me to be a better person. I don’t think I’m alone when I say that, and so I can imagine a multitude of people out there striving to make the world around them better.
