Good morning, Netizens...

Perhaps this quote, from Obama's Inaugural Speech yesterday, spoke the loudest to me personally, and obviously this morning, it also spoke to David Horsey.

For we are a young nation, and as such, we have a great deal to learn about governance, and dedication to our own beliefs. Without raining on the parade of his predecessor, Barack Obama's speech served many purposes, including those of the world who consider themselves to be our enemies. At his finest moment, however, he sought and I believe has captured the essence of who we are as a nation, and thus brought us back to where we began.

Nobody ever said he wasn't eloquent, or a great speech writer. Did Obama's speech speak to you, and if so, how and where?
