Americans, there are two things I have to say to you…

by Matt Burgess on November 4, 2008

1) I remember being a young boy in South Africa when Nelson Mandela was released from prison. I was probably a bit too young to appreciate that moment fully, but I remember watching his first speech since the release and being transfixed. Then, when he became president in 1994, I watched him deliver his inauguration speech… and it gave me goosebumps.
That speech, today, gave me those self-same goosebumps.

2) Just so that you know… for the first time since i was a little kid playing cowboys… I want to be YOU.
