Barack Obama. Presidential Victory Speech Page #4

---

to see the next century,

if my daughters should be so lucky

to live as long as Ann Nixon Cooper,

what change will they see?

What progress will we have made?

This is our chance to answer that call.

This is our moment.

This is our time,

to put our people back to work

and open doors of opportunity

for our kids;

to restore prosperity

and promote the cause of peace;

to reclaim the American dream

and reaffirm that fundamental truth,

that, out of many, we are one;

that while we breathe, we hope.

And where we are met

with cynicism and doubts,

and those who tell us that we can't,

we will respond with that timeless creed

that sums up the spirit of a people:

Yes, we can.

Thank you.

God bless you.

And may God bless

the United States of America.

And the unlikely journey of the junior

senator from Illinois

brings in here to Grand Park

where he speaks moonily

before some 125 000 supporters

who've waited for him all night long,

cheering every victory in every state.

He spoke movingly about

that 106 years freakin' american woman

Ann Nixon Cooper and what

she has endured

in those 106 years.

He spoke of course about change

and about this... not the change,

but the chance to an act to change

that he's talking about.

Joined now by the new vice President,

Joe Biden.

Congratulations to Barack Obama

for his great victory.
