Does anyone else feel a "RENEWED" sense of being an American today? See details below?

I awoke this morning after seeing Barrack Obama become the President elect. I saw people of all colors and races drop to their knees and cry, and scream and cheer together. I saw smiles and hope and flags raised in hope and praise and anticipation that I haven't seen the Kennedy era. Did anyone else see, or feel the same thing last night and then wake refreshed and "renewed" this morning?
