And after this amazing speech and song by our president,

after the president had greeted the family in the first row, the
pastor in charge, after thanking many others added, quietly:
" . . . and thanks to Rev. President."

It took a minute.

Wait for it if you have the chance to watch the whole speech.
I think the networks had already cut away, but our local news
had a feed and carried the whole service.

Adding my thanks to the good Rev. President for this great
speech that was so brilliant, so needed, and so inclusive.
DU can learn so much from this man. I hope all the name
calling and criticisms can be put on hold for another day.

Today is the people's day.
