WOW.

Now that I am an "old fart.." I can see what Martin Luther King was talking about when he said, "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice." This was actually first said by Theodore Parker,  a Unitarian minister, reformer and abolitionist in the nineteenth century, who was admired by Martin Luther King.  That phrase was a leap of faith toward the American promise  so eloquently penned by the founding documents.  A hundred years later, it was entered again into the arduous debate to keep us focused on the importance of that leap of faith... the essential trust in each other, that... somehow, through all of the stuggle... we, too, would set our path toward justice.  And it emerges again today, with the evidence of the leap of faith that justice for all may actually prevail. That is what elections do.
