Three snapshots taken from a moving bus on November 16th, 2008 that I instantly found reminiscent of Gone with the Wind.

Hauser: I’m a host, I’m a showman, I’m an organizer. There’s just people here. Some good, some bad, all interesting. You seem like an interesting person and I try not to overthink these things.
Natalie: You’re a clever guy. Some would even call you charming. But it gets tired, doesn’t it? All that patter, all the show biz, it’s just a mask. There’s gotta be a person in there somewhere.
Hauser: Did you know that the word ‘person’ comes from the Latin word ‘persona’ which means mask? So maybe being human means we invite spectators to ponder what lies behind. Each of us would be composed of a variety of masks. And if we can see behind the mask, we would get a burst of clarity. And if that flame was bright enough, that’s when we fall in love. What’s your opinion on these divine matters?

It sank in late last night just as the numbers were veering towards palpable certainty, an hour or so before Senator McCain’s concession speech. ‘This is huge,’ I thought very late in the game, after the long campaign I had kept a certain distance from, even as a news watcher. Change has indeed come to America and to the world. ‘A giant leap for mankind’ comes to mind just as The Sun’s headline reads. The distinct feeling of history being made, witnessed and shared. This was a historic election indeed, as the outcome itself (rather than the rolling of sleeves that follows any change in leadership) has brought about a renewal of hope. If the world and its people have evolved enough to appoint Barack Obama leader of the free world, we just might have great things in store.
Good Luck, Mr. President.
