Nov. 4 one of our nation's finest days

Yes we can, and yes we did. The people of the U.S. showed the world that we can come together as a people no matter how much we differ on issues, and that is what makes our democracy and country so great.

As the television cameras scanned the faces of our nation and the world, one could see how coming together as a people makes people peaceful and happy.

Nov. 4, 2008 will go down in history as one of the finest hours of our nation. God bless the candidates whether they won or lost. God bless our new president and his family. And may God bless America and all her fine and good sisters and brothers.
