I had a Dream

I would like to congratulate the new elect president of the United States de America, by the results obtained in yesterday. Day 4 of November of 2008 will happen to history, and we have had the luck to be able to live this great moment. From my point of view, Barack Obama represents the American dream, a loaded dream of symbolism, illusions and new projects, now only it is to wait for if all those promises of change are fulfilled. Next, I hang the speech that I pronounce Obama in Chicago yesterday: If still it is somebody that way that still doubt that the United States is a place where everything is possible, that still is asked if the dream of our founders follows alive in our times, that still the force of our democracy questions, tonight it is his answer. It is the answer given by the tails that extended around schools and churches in a number how this nation never has seen, by the people who waited for three hours and four hours, many of them for the first time in their lives, because they thought that this time had to be different, and that their voices could suppose that difference. It is the answer pronounced by the young people and old, rich and poor, democratic and republican, black, white, Hispanic, indigenous, homosexual, heterosexual, disabled or the nondisabled ones. Americans whom they transmitted to the world the message of which never we have been simply a collection of individuals nor a collection of red states and blue states. We are, and we will always be, the United States of America. It is the answer that lead to that during as much time they have been advised being skeptical and afraid and doubtful it exceeds what we can obtain, to put hands to the arc of History and to once again twist it towards the hope in a day better. Time in arriving has taken, but tonight, due to which we did in this date, these elections, at this moment decisive, the change has come to the United States. Tonight, I received an extraordinarily courteous call of McCain senator. McCain senator fought releases hard and in this campaign. And he has fought still more releases hard and by the country that he loves. He has held sacrifices by the United States that we cannot nor imagine. All we have benefitted from served by this brave and sacrificed leader. I congratulate to him; I congratulate to Palin governor by everything what they have obtained. And I am wishing to collaborate with them to renew the promise of that nation during the next months. I want to thank for partner in this trip, a man who campaigned from the heart, and made of spokesman of the men and the women with those who child in the streets of Scranton and with those who traveled itself in train from return to his house in Delaware, the elect vice-president of the United States, Joe Biden. And it would not be here tonight without the untiring endorsement of my better friend during last the 16 years, the stone of our family, the love of my life, next the first lady of the nation, Michelle Obama. Sasha and Malia I love, you to two more than you can imagines. And you have gained the new puppy that will accompany to us until the new White House. And although no longer it is with us, I know that my grandmother is seeing us, along with the family who did of me what I am. I tonight throw them in lack. I know that my debt towards them is incalculable. brother Mayan, my brother Soul, to the rest of my brothers and brothers, very many thanks for all the endorsement that you have contributed to me. I am thanked for all you. And director of campaign, David Plouffe, the hero nonrecognized of this campaign, that constructed the best one, the best political campaign, I create, in the History of the United States of America. strategist in head, David Axelrod, that has been a partner mine to each passage of the way. To the best field equipment than one has been made up in the history of the policy. You made reality this, and I am thanked for always reason why you have sacrificed to obtain it. But mainly, I will not forget to whom really belongs this victory. It belongs to you. It belongs to you. I never seemed the aspiring to this position with more possibilities. We did not begin by far money nor with many endorsement. Our campaign was not devised in the corridors of Washington. One began in the back gardens of DES Moines and in the quarters to be of Concord and in the porches of Charleston. It was constructed by the workers and the workers who resorted to the few savings that they had to donate to the cause five dollars and ten dollars and twenty dollars. It acquired force of the young people who rejected the myth of the apathy of their generation, which they back let to his houses and their relatives to do works that tried little money and less dream to them. It acquired force of the people not so young that they made against the frozen cold and the ardent heat to call to the doors of strangers and the million Americans who offered volunteers and organized and demonstrated that, more than two centuries later, a government of the town, by the town and for the town she has not vanished of the Earth. This is your victory. And I know that you did not only make it to gain elections. And I know that you did not do it by me. You did it because you understand the magnitude of the task that is ahead. While we celebrated tonight, we know that the challenges that will bring to us at some future date are the majors of our lives - two wars, a planet in danger, the worse financial crisis for a century. While we are here tonight, we know that there are brave Americans who awake in the deserts of Iraq and mountains of Afghanistan to gamble the life by us. There are mothers and parents who will remain kept awake in the bed after the children have fallen asleep and they are wondered how to the mortgage or the medical invoices will pay or to save the sufficient thing for the university education of its children. There is new energy to be useful, new jobs to create, new schools to construct, and threats to answer, alliances to repair. The way ahead will be long. The ascent will be raised. Perhaps we do not arrive in a year nor in a mandate. Nevertheless, the United States, never I have been as hopeful as I am tonight from which we will arrive. I promise to you that, we, like town, will arrive. There will be mishaps and beginnings in false. There is many will not be in agreement with each decision or political mine when he is president. And we know that the government cannot solve all the problems. But always I will be sincere with you on the challenges that they confront to us. I will listen to you, mainly when we differed. And mainly, I will ask that you participate to you in the work to reconstruct this nation, of the unique form in which block by block has become in the United States during 221 years, brick by brick, encallecida hand on encallecida hand. What winter began 21 months ago in the heat of cannot finish in tonight autumnal. This victory in itself is not the change that we looked for. It is only the opportunity so that we make that change. And that cannot happen if we return to like were before. It cannot happen without you, without a new spirit of sacrifice. So we make a call to a new spirit of the patriotism, of responsibility, in which each makes use and it works more and the one of the other worries not only about we ourself but. We remember that, if this financial crisis has taught something to us, it is that cannot have a Wall s$street (financial sector) prosperous whereas Main Street (the commerce of on foot) suffers. In this country, we advanced or we failed like a single nation, a single town. We resist the temptation to fall to the partisanship and meanness and immaturity that have intoxicated our political life for as much time. We remember that he was a man of this state that took for the first time to the White House the flag of the Republican Party, a party founded on the values of the self-sufficiency and the freedom of the individual and the national unit. Those are values that all we shared. And whereas the Democratic Party has gained a great victory tonight, we make with certain humility and the decision to cure the divisions that have prevented our progress. As Lincoln said to a nation much more divided that ours, we are not enemy but friendly. Although they have put them to the passions under tension, do not have to break our bows of affection. And to those Americans whose endorsement I have left to win, it has perhaps not obtained your vote tonight, but I listen to your voices. I need your aid. And I will be your president, also. And to all those that see us tonight from beyond our coasts, from parliaments and palaces, to which they are joined around the radios in the corners forgotten the world, our histories are diverse, but our destiny is shared, and arrives a new dawn from American leadership. To those, to which they would collapse to the world: We are going to you to win. That they look for La Paz and the security: we supported to you. And that they are asked if the light of the United States still illuminates so strongly: Tonight we have demonstrated once again that the authentic force of our nation comes not from the power of our arms nor from the magnitude of our wealth but from the lasting power of our ideals; the democracy, the freedom, the opportunity and Love.
