Inaguration instant thoughts:

Watching The Rev. Lowerey: How many african american men and women, in the history of America restrained their hand, held their tounge, and bowed before their white masters and those until just 40 years ago were held to be "their betters", so as to ensure the dignity and respect of their race.

When Lowerey was born, none of his race could argue or challenge the white man to define the path of their nation. Today, one of their own stands as its leader.

These are not individuals who will ever be remembered by history, who's acts of dignity were not recorded, or even recognized. But their pay off comes today. If Obama does nothing else, he did this. He did this.

Long live America.
