History has been made

On the home front, I'm happy to say that Dano is home, and while he's going to take a while to recuperate, I anticipate it will be easier for him in his own room than in a hospital bed. On behalf of his family, I thank you for all the prayers and good wishes, and I ask you to continue to keep them in your thoughts.
I don't have to tell you that history was made tonight, as the first African-American nominee of a major party for President of the United States accepted the nomination. I paid close attention to the entire convention, and will do the same next week as Republicans gather in the Twin Cities. And I am convinced that this election may be the most important in a generation. So I urge all of you to search your hearts, determine what's important, and above all else, vote.
I am a believer in the notion that God does not care who we elect as President, but does care that we, as a nation and as individuals, act toward other nations and each other in just the manner that we would have them act toward us. This requires us to be patient and understanding, but unrelenting in those ideals that are inspired by our founders and our faith. Between now and November 4, let us demand of our leaders and our candidates that they take the high road, avoid personal attacks and tell us the truth. If they will do that, we will make the right decision.
I know it's asking a lot. But America and the world deserve no less.
God bless America.
