Acceptance speech of an honest candidate
This is just brilliant, and worth a read regardless of your ideology. It was written before the results were in, and anything like it would sound like music to me coming from either candidate. I’m not holding my breath.

Please spread the word about these.
That speech was breath taking!!! It was real and honest. It was laced with some of the things I believe in. Such as, if you do something wrong or bad and you know it, ADMIT IT! And when it comes down to it, politicians will every dirty little trick to win our votes.
I would love one day to hear our president give a speech like this after a victory. But like Walker said, I wouldn’t hold my breath.
