5. I have an aunt who is 82 and said the same thing almost
She told me about how they used to listen to FDR on the radio. She was born in 1925, and was old enough by the time FDR took office to remember him well. He was president until she was 20.

She got teary eyed over it, and she wasn't crying for her political ambition but for the hope she thinks Obama brings for the future. She doesn't want to go out under Bush's watch, and has been worried about where we are headed.
