(as a socialist Canadian) I'm not in love with President Obama, but that was truly amazing. Its so sad; the circumstances that brought him here to deliver that eulogy, but I think parts of it, and certainly the ending are up there with RFK's announcement of MLK's death as a unique and defining moment in history, and hopefully some kind of watershed moment in a moving chain of events.
