(2,565 posts)Then this video had me screaming out loud and clapping....
Alone in my house on an early Saturday evening, feeling just a wee bit crazy.....
And man, when he smiles, it's genuineness socks me right in the heart.
And I think, this man, this man - is THE ONE!
Wtf? I've been a Poly Wonk for 30 years..never felt like this about any leader, much less a politician.
What is this feeling? I'm 51, and I can't pinpoint exactly what this feeling is. It's a swelling of a mass of feelings.... So strong it feels physical.
I think I know...
It's how people felt watching Martin Luther, JFK, and FDR, speak LIVE.
And no matter what happens, I am so grateful I was able to hear a man of profound greatness, integrity, passion, sincerity and strength - fight for the people in my lifetime, finally.
With this joy, there is also a heavy sadness. It took 50 years for another man to stand up and fight like this!
If it slips through are fingers now, will there be another one in our lifetimes? Sadly, I feel the answer is "no", and I'm positive there won't be in my lifetime.
