Election night, 2008. We had a little election watching party with my daughter (first time she ever voted), her friends and mine. After it was officially announced that Obama had defeated McSame, my daughter, who had already set it up, blasted "Give Peace A Chance" (long version) on the stereo. We were laughing, crying, high-fiving, waving peace signs in the air and hugging each other. We were so ecstatic! We listened to that song again and again as we celebrated! What a great experience!

We may be dreamers, but a lot of people are with us. Peace.

Kath.
