I worked the phones for both his Ohio Primary and his Presidential campaigns, and I'm not at all ashamed to say that I cried when he took the Oath of Office yesterday. My husband and sons, all marginalized during the past 8 years because of their heritage, they sent text messages home, telling me that they were crying too.

They feel a part of their own country again.

NO ONE in American government has ever resonated with me the way President Obama has. He values knowledge, service...and hard work. It's a joy for me to see someone who comes from hard work rather than inherited money taking the reins.

Hail to the Chief, y'all.
