Intellect.. More Than A Woman

Democratic National Convention: Day 1

So, I going to give you a little insight on what the happs were during the convention and my opinion of what was relevant.

Ted Kennedy spoke tonight, and barely left a dry eye in the house. Obviously, the show stopper was Michelle Obama. She truly gave an inspirational speech.


Statements that stood out with me:

"All of us are driven by a simple belief that the world as it is just won't do-"

"And Barack and I were raised with so many of the same values: that you work hard for what you want in life; that your word is your bond and you do what you say you're going to do; that you treat people with dignity and respect, even if you don't know them, and even if you don't agree with them."


"They'll tell them how this time, we listened to our hopes, instead of our fears. How this time, how this time, we decided to stop doubting and to start dreaming. How this time, in this great country -- where a girl from the South Side of Chicago can go to college and law school, and the son of a single mother from Hawaii can go all the way to the White House -- that we committed ourselves, we committed ourselves to building the world as it should be."

I feel that just like Barack has a quality that inspires, she has a quality that inspires. To say that you can't do it ALL in such a way to make you feel that tomorrow is what your are waiting for..to change everything. I can say her speech will forever be remembered by me and others. So take a moment to think about yourself and figure out how you will make your mark on tomorrow...

Hit me up and tell me what you thoguth about the DNC tonight..was it what you expected. Was there something that stuck out in your mind?
