YEAH, Yeah, yeah. We were granted the payment for our efforts. TONIGHT could have been Romney.

I'm sitting here listening to one who gets it. OUR PRESIDENT.
I'm sitting here watching one who has suggestions and hopes and understanding - and the power to get them worked for and understood
The more I hear, the more I know he is our Champion.

I know we have reasons to not understand decisions and choices he makes.
But honest to God
I need to simply trust
He is what we have been offered, He is who we worked to elect, He is who represents us. Gracias a Dios.

The sheer thought of the alternative makes me almost go and be sick.
I'll instead reserve that response to those who are about to come and attempt to dissuade his ideas to be what's good for this country.

I possibly am doing a lousy job writing this up.
But really - we on DU fought hard, and got this man back in office, and emotion is the proper and grateful response.

I trust that things will get better under his leadership. For all Americans especially the poor and down trodden. Our President is a good man and you can't fake that.

Mom at 88 had a dangerous back operation and is resting in ICU

My Ipod, most important tool, broke down and I replaced it at half price

My President, most fucking important person other than my Mother, showed he understands just about everything I need to have addressed.

Gracias a Dios all the way around - big stuff surrounding little stuff

I just went to see the latest threads and saw yours at the top.

You said what I've thought, said it well and better than I could have expressed. I don't believe that is/was an exaggeration to say that the difference between President Obama and Romney (or many other neo-cons), was life and death. For our country and for all citizens; right or left. We are truly fortunate to have him as our POTUS.

I was listening to him while looking through your photos
