So many marches.
Such a long time.
Slaving away in the hot sun,
song after song,
prayer after prayer,
day after day.
The thought of freedom is the only thing keeping them working all day long in the hot sun.
And then, to see a black man elected president of the USA,
It's unbelievable.
A man who will bring change and history to America.
He has a long road ahead of him,
But America is ready for Barack Obama.
