Obama is nominated at Dem convention and gives historic speech in Denver. His "Big Night" 4 years in the making, and 45 years after King's "I have a dream" speech on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. ("The fierce urgency of now"). I like what congressman James Clyburn said about the impact of this moment—that 4-5 year olds will see it as a paradigm shift, similar to the effect Kennedy had.
