Powerful speech, I think he said what he needed to say and showed what he needed to show.

I beleive that the speech from Obama was very powerful and moving. He touched on some things that were so real to middle class Americans. Now, it is time for change in America and I beleive he can make that change. Middle class Americans have been ignored in politics foe too long and now it is time they get their fair share of the economic pie! I believe that Obama can and will acheive that one goal. Yes we can!!

The speech was very powerful but what really touches me the most is the love him and Michelle share together. Without words, you can see the love between them two and the love they have for the girls. Seeing them as a family is so inspiring. I believe Obama will not only change America, but will give other Men the drive to want to love and support their families more. Spend time, hug and kiss their spouses and kids more, that is the type of leader we need for our country. I was listening to the speech again on the radio and they played Fantasia song " I beleive" in the background. I was so moved, it brought me to tears. We need a change and Obama is our answer.

His speech was very moving and on point. I couldn't stop nodding my head and applauding. He already has my vote, last night just sealed the deal

I loved the speech! I especially like the part where he said the race was not about him, but about the people. I think that got the attention of a lot of people and gave everyone hope of a change. Michelle and the girls were beautiful! You can tell he just adores them. Dominiques last blog post..Barack Obama Makes History and Dares America To Dream!
