Was anyone else distracted by last night's not-so-jumbotron? It's one thing to have Michelle and the girls look up to see their father on the big screen, just as Nancy once did, waving to Ron. But the eye-level image of Barack talking with his wife and daughters made me think of those memory crystals in the Fortress of Solitude.
Live as one of them, Barack, to discover where your strength and your power are needed. Always hold in your heart the pride of your special heritage. They can be a great people, Barack, if they wish to be. They only lack the light to show the way. For this reason above all, their capacity for good, I have sent them you ... my only son.
