Forty-five years after the Rev. Martin Luther King delivered his "I Have A Dream" speech, many Americans feel that dream has been realized with the election of Barack Obama as 44th president of the United States. The producers of the American News Project take a cinematic look back on this election season as we trace Obama's footsteps in Colorado, Alabama, California, Virginia, Illinois and Washington D.C. As we look back, Obama reminds the nation to look forward to the challenges ahead.
This makes me proud. Thank you for posting this well put-together video.
¡Gracias!

I'm not an American. I'm not of African descent. I am a poet, mother and feminist activist living on the prairies of Canada. And I am deeply moved by what the Obama campaign and the American electorate have done. I cried like a baby on Tuesday night. I cried when I saw a clip from Oprah's post-election TV show (and I don't watch TV). And I cried again, watching this.
There is something much deeper than an election that has happened in the USA and I thank you all for whatever that is.

Extremely well done! The acceptance speech brought tears to my eyes. This time capsule video brought a few more.
