3、ld, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Hispanic, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled. Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been just a collection of individuals or a collection of red states and blue states.We are, and always wi
4、ll be, the United States of America.Its the answer that led those whove been told for so long by so many to be cynical and fearful and doubtful about what we can achieve to put their hands on the arc of history and bend it once more toward the hope of a better day.Its been a long time coming, but to

We are better off for the service rendered by this brave and selfless leader.I congratulate him; I congratulate Governor Palin for all that theyve achieved. And I look forward to working with

I know that my debt to them is beyond measure.To my sister Maya, my sister Alma, all my other brothers and sisters,
10、thank you so much for all the support that youve given me. I am grateful to them.To my campaign manager, David Plouffe, the unsung hero of this campaign, who built the best - the best political campaign, I think, in the history of the United States of America.To my chief strategist David Axelrod who
11、s been a partner with me every step of the way.To the best campaign team ever assembled in the history of politics you made this happen, and I am forever grateful for what youve sacrificed to get it done.But above all, I will never forget who this victory truly belongs to. It belongs to you. It belo

It began in the backyards of Des Moines and the living rooms of Concord and the front porches of Charleston. It was built by w
