we are the city of Barack Obama."

Thank you, Chicago! Barack Obama is a genuine statesman and one who has brought us back into the fold of the global community — with respect, with awe, and with humility. I’m so proud of the United States today. And I’m overcome by the global celebration and expression in the face of this monumental occasion.
