For those who paved the way:

Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman, JFK, RFK, Martin Luther King, Medgar Evers, The Tuskeegee Airmen, Rosa Parks….

For those who fought the good fight, and bled and died so that we could stand on their shoulders…

For those who never thought the day would happen….

For those who look on from Heaven and rejoice with those of us on Earth!

Let each of us pitch in to help our new President.  If he fails, we all fail…
