(2,738 posts)for every black, Asian, Hispanic, Native American and other person of color who rose up, overcame barriers to vote, and voted to save this democracy. For every young person, many even too young to vote but not too young to help; for the countless men and women of every age, race, and religion who worked tirelessly to achieve this amazing moment: Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Bless you one and all.
I want to also thank some who we sometimes fail to appreciate, the strong Republicans who put country over party and made every effort to defeat Donald Trump. And I want to thank Bernie Sanders as well, who chose not to run a destructive third party campaign that would have undoubtedly cost us the election, but instead understood the existential threat and fought to defeat Trump as well (along with many Berners). Thank you!!!
