Not only does he know the struggles of our people, but he has lived through them and has fought along side to fight those very struggles. Your meeting with him and his letter to urge the passage of the CA Dream Act is testament that we are so close.-YES WE CAN!aj.titonghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09120128837082535752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1774125483475099230.post-83807806911567581692008-11-06T00:10:00.000-08:002008-11-06T00:10:00.000-08:00I am so glad he is president!

Th...Dear Faby, <BR/><BR/>I am with you every step of the way. This is it, this IS our time, but I also agree that we cannot leave our DREAMs for others to make them a reality. And quoting our new President-elect Barack Obama, (and I say OUR, because although we were not able to vote for him, we DREAMERS did our part in making this historic change possible) I’d like to remind everyone that,<BR/><BR/>“Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change we seek.” <BR/> <BR/>The road will not be easy, but today our hopes have been renewed and new energy has filled out hearts. Thanks Faby, Matias, and the whole team of “Underground Undergrads” for the great work you do. <BR/><BR/>Let’s go DREAMers, our time has come!!!Lizbeth Mateohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14066071142076917518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1774125483475099230.post-84586835844651792872008-11-05T22:21:00.000-08:002008-11-05T22:21:00.000-08:00Agreed.

Today, I FEEL American even though I did not get the opportunity to vote. (Now, normally I feel American everyday, but today I wanted to be one of those weirdos who walks around with a flag draped luxuriously around her shoulders...) <BR/><BR/>I think you hit a good point: We still have loads more to achieve to get to wear we want to be. The President Elect's journey will be hard, and so will ours. <BR/><BR/>Obama speaks beautiful words 24/7. I'm excited to see him act, and I hope he remains just as sincere in those actions as he was to you with those words on that fortunate day. Also, we must remain optimistic. Republicans like McCain love us, too. If we work hard enough, I am sure we can gain more of such lovers. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1774125483475099230.post-53670046202076742472008-11-05T21:51:00.000-08:002008-11-05T21:51:00.000-08:00I will forever be jealous that you had this conver...I will forever be jealous that you had this conversation with OBAMA!<BR/><BR/>You are right, getting Obama in office was just the first step.
