Barack Obama - this is our time - that speech

Barack Obama’s Democratic Nomination Victory Speech at St Paul’s Minessota.

We are all in this prison together like the prisoners in the legendary “Shawshank Redemption“; when Brooks could not take it anymore in the ‘Half-way House’ he etched on the word that ‘Brooks was Here’ before taking his life. Red got there he had other plans as he was not about to take his life; but, he appended his name thus ‘and so was Red’. Red did not give it up, he has hope as Andy convinced him to see hope thus; ‘Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things and no good thing ever die’. We will all escape this prison someday.

To every believer out there, Barack is etching the words on the marble of our age with his clarion call that: ‘this is our moment’, ‘this is our time’. I will do my bit here today be reproducing part of that messages so that the generations to come will someday, somehow come across this and know that we caught the vision and ran with it.

Here is the last three mintues of that great speach. You can watch the entire 29 mins speech over and over again.

This is out time; This is our moment;

Our time to turn the pages of the policies of the past; Our time to bring bring new energy and new ideas to the challenges we face;

Our time to offer a new direction for this country that we love;

The journey will be difficult, the road will be long, I face this challenge with profound humility and knowledge of my own limitations, but i also face it with limitless faith in the capacity of the American people because if we are willing to fight for it and beleive in it; then i am absolutely certain that generations from now we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment we began to provide care for the sick and bring job for the jobless;

This was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and the planets began to heal;

This was the moment we end the war and secure our image as the last best hope on earth;

This was was the moment, this was the time when we come together to remake this great nation so that it willalways reflect our very best selves and our highest ideals…

Wherever you are lucky or not to lucky to find yourselve; one thing is sure this is our time to make the necessary change that will help heal this planet.
