On Monday, Organizing for America held a rally in support of health care reform outside the Phoenix Convention Center. Obama was delivering a speech to veterans. Debra and Maggie attended the rally. Despite the typical hateful rhetoric and gun-toting of some of the opposing protesters (including an AR-15), the girls report the rally was a great experience.
On this day in 1963 Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his I Have A Dream speech from the Lincoln Memorial in Washington. One of the most poignant lines from the speech has special significance on the day when Barack Obama will accept his party’s nomination for President.
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
It’s a great day to be an American.
