Historic Elections

In 2000, my father voted absentee ballot, while in hospice.  On election night, November 7th, my mother hosts a birthday/election night party for him.  It's his 84th birthday.  One of his favorite things in life is democracy, so this is a perfect way to spend time in hospice.

As it turns, George Washington Gibbs, Jr passes away peacefully in his sleep that night.  He was surrounded by friends of all ages.  He died happy,  thinking Al Gore won.  We've been through a lot George, since 2000.  Happy Birthday.  Congrats to President Barack Obama
and this historic election.  
I look forward to new levels of bipartisan cooperation in all levels of politics. Forward!
