When we hope, we hope for things. Rather than hoping, wouldn’t it be better to actually go out and make those things happen?

Obama campaigned on change. He wanted to change the way Washington works. He wanted to make a clean break from the past. He wanted to change American policy and change the way people see America itself. I would say that in these first few days in office he’s done so. He’s gone from the corruption of the right to the corruption of the left.
