For the first time in my life....

I am really, really, super-duper, Proud Of My Country.

Now do you understand the context of what Michelle Obama was conveying when after the victory in Iowa, she saw that this country could actually be as open minded truly as Dr. King envisioned, and that this particular year -maybe Iowans are truly reflective of the country's desire with this candidacy?

This is the most patriotic moment in my adult life that I have yet, or possibly will ever experience. The kind that we now know, a majority of us have been waiting for.

But it could only come from the perfect confluence of the Right Stuff. These kind of people--the ones willing to sacrafice everything selflissly for the betterment of mankind takes (A.) a ton of hubris, but (B.) Perfect personal awarenesss. That he actaully convinced himself that he is the only person right now best fit for this job. You know, the easy job of being President of the United States of America.
Obviously convincing the rest of the country was much more difficult a task to be decided.
