Implications of 2008 presidential elections

What makes a nation great? What makes an organization great?

Forty years ago, we heard Martin Luther King deliver his speech
claiming liberty and equality, the very rights given to all of humankind
since the moment of birth.
This is something that Christians know as the facto truth.
However, it seems that we interpret God's intentions
in the mostly convenient way for us.

And in this way, forty years have past.
The world still ignorant of the real truth,
just not caring of the very essence of life and justice.
Of course there have been changes,
paradigms that amelliorated the world we live in,
but still there is a long road to go.

Forty years later, a person hardly thought to be
the most powerful person in the world was elected president.
November 4th was the day that confirmed us that
there is still hope and that we are doing well in fighting
the most nobel war in the history: a war for human dignity.

Shared dreams have impacts. Shared dreams always come true.
Shared dreams are those we should never give up.
