Obama's "More Perfect Union" Speech
Delivered on March 18th, at the Philadelphia Constitution Center. It's just over 37 minutes long and worth every single second. If you haven't watched it yet, consider it mandatory viewing.
It is probably one of the most important and beautiful speeches in recent memory, on race, political divisiveness and broader issues Americans face today. With this single speech, Barack Obama has dwarfed all competition and laid the groundwork for a brighter, more united future.
All I can say in response is "Hello, Mr, President!"
