"Some princes are born in palaces. Some are born in mangers. But a few are born in the imagination, out of scraps of history and hope. [. . .] Barack Hussein Obama did not win because of the color of his skin. Nor did he win in spite of it. He won because at a very dangerous moment in the life of a still young country, more people than have ever spoken before came together to try to save it. And that was a victory all its own."
