When the Democratic party nominated its first African American presidential candidate???

Man, I'm so emotional right now. Even though I'm a Hillary fan, you can't help but be in awe of this situation. As an African American, it's just tugging at my heart strings. My grandmother told me that she never thought she'd see the day based on her life experiences. Wow. This is pretty neat.

I'm a Joe Biden fan, so when Obama picked him as his running mate, I was sold.

Obama - Biden in '08 - WOO!

Definately pretty great stuff! Not sure about Biden though, I don't know anything about him.

THAT is amazing and very cool. So glad your grandma lived to see this. Although I am a McCain person (ducking now), I am pleased to see FINALLY a change in perception on who should be president. 2008 is a year for the history books!

Dawn, do you wish you were there...or is it enough to be at home surrounded by your DH and kids watching all of the excitement?

That is so awesome for your Grandma! I'm a Hillary fan too, but this is definately one for the history books!
