When I watched this video a flicker of optimism briefly flashed across my psyche. I have allowed myself to be inspired by this guy before, not because he is a great speaker, but because I can't find bullshit in every sentence he utters. He may be full of crap but the fact that I can't tell fills me with hope. Elders tell stories of another young politician who people like me were enthusiastic about. I wonder how that worked out.
I guess what could go wrong matters less than what might go right. As I'm getting ready to invest in society like I never have before, Obamas' announcement is encouraging. I will not yet have to resort to building an ark. Also, the next time some right wing nut case yells that Hillary is the devil, I will be able to relate in some small way.
