A friend of mine shared this quote with me, and I love it:
"Crispus Attucks fell so that Rosa Parks could sit,
Rosa Parks sat so that Dr. Martin Luther King could march,
Dr. Martin Luther King marched so that Barack Obama could run,
and Barack Obama is running so that our children and grandchildren can fly."

I sent my mother to twelve places in Greenville hunting for a copy of the Wed Nov 5th NY Times. No luck... they'd all been sold out by about noon.
I did have the foresight to photocopy my absentee ballot before I mailed it back in. One day if I have kids (and if the Obama presidency turns out to be truly historical) I can show them it and talk about my participation in the political process all the way from Chile.
