    If you're tired of arguing with people on the internet, try talking to one in real life.

    If you're disappointed by your elected officials, grab a clipboard, get some signatures, and run for office yourself.

    I'm asking you to believe not in my ability to bring about change, but in yours. To hold fast to that faith that is written in our founding documents...Yes we can. Yes we did. Yes we can. Thank you, God bless you. May God continue to bless America.

Damn, Obama.

edit: Yeah, I got pretty teary during the bit about Michelle Obama and his daughters.

edit edit: and now Biden oh no.
