"YES WE CAN"

Only 50 years after segregation, there will be a black president in the United States. On November 4th, history was written. Some people compare him to J.F. Kennedy or M.L. King. Hopefully he doesn't end up as tragically as them. Maybe he won because he was black, but it is mostly a sign that they did not agree with the 8 year Republican hegemony under President Bush.

What I noticed was that McCain's Concession Speech was the best speech I heard from him this campaign. It sounded even more democratic than Obama's Acceptance Speech. Even though the Americans (including California) voted for a democrat, California still voted conservative on proposition 8. Proposition 8 was an amendment to the California Constitution that eliminated the newly-declared right of same-sex couples to marry. 52,5% voted in favor for proposition 8. So bad. How can you say to people who love each other that they cannot marry just because they have the same sex? Love is love...

Today mom and I went to this flower shop to get a flower for my neighbor who is being operated tomorrow. It was the yearly open door day and they offered all kind of treats and wine. I had this nice white wine. Feeling a bit dizzy.
