There was a really touching live segment that ran just now on a local San Diego station. There was an African American couple speaking live on-air to a news reporter at the civic center downtown, San Diego's "election central". With tears in their eyes, they described about how much Sen. Obama's win means to them.
The wife described how she was about 5-6 years old when she walked along side her mother during civil rights marches and how they thought they'd never see the day a black man is elected President, but had always hoped for it. The husband talked about how much hope this win for Sen. Obama brings to the people and how proud he is to be an American. Then, just as the reporter was sending the segment back to the studio, the man became moved again and started crying.
It's really awesome to see how much this election has meant to so many people.
