Girls just want to have fun ... ... That was the last thing I remember hearing on my radio ... I had it in sleep mode as I dozed off. I just love Cyndi Lauper ... she is so uninhibited. You know ... I'm having fun. This is so much fun ...
"Obama ... Obama ... Obama ... Obama" People were chanting and screaming as far as I could see in every direction. I felt so confused and distraught. I began to panic, pushing my way through the crowd. "I need some air." I screamed out loud but noone seemed to hear me. Suddenly I saw what looked like a sailboat. I pushed my way over to it and the next thing I knew I was standing next to a river. A man at a podium continued to speak. "Where am I?!" I screamed out again. "Hello ma'am!" A young lady said, staring me in the face. "Where am I?" The lady looked me in the eyes, and with an astonished look, said, "I am sure you realize this is Portland Oregon and we are standing here on the bank of the Willamette River listening to the greatest uniter in the history of this nation! Look up there, the next President of the United States!!!"
I stared in disbelief at the man standing behind the podium. My memory started coming back to me. It's Barack Obama! The chants began ringing through my head, "OBAMA ... OBAMA ... OBAMA" I couldn't take it and placed my hands upon my ears. Tears began to flow down my face. The young lady looked at me and said, "What's wrong, ma'am? This is a joyous moment! You should be so happy. Please don't be sad!"
I began to scream at the top of my lungs, "NO ... It's MY TURN!!! I AM SUPPOSED TO BE PRESIDENT!!!" To my shock, the entire crowd went quiet. You could hear a pin drop. I looked around me ... 160,000 eyeballs focused on me! "I will work SO hard for you! PLEASE! Make ME the President!" Not a peep out of the crowd ... they stared me down ... and then suddenly ...
"It's HILLARY! GET HER!!!" They grabbed me and placed me in a cage and hoisted it upon the stand beside the podium. I grabbed ahold of the bars but I could not free myself. I looked around but I could no longer see Barack Obama ... just 80,000 angry people, chanting ... "KILL ... KILL ... KILL"
Suddenly the crowd stopped chanting and they began to cheer, their fists waving and thrusting into the air ... the sound again deafening ... "OBAMA ... OBAMA" I looked behind me only to see Barack Obama step up on the stand and to the podium.
Barack Obama speaks, "Did I not preach Unity? Did I not tell you, WE THE PEOPLE will bring this nation together?" The crowd roared with approval. Barack Obama held his arms out to quiet them. Obama spoke, "Look here, at this woman." I stood there, teary eyed and staring at Obama and out upon the thousands of people. I prayed to myself for forgiveness.
Obama stepped over to the cage and opened the door. He held out his arms and hugged me. I completely let loose and started balling my eyes out. "I am so sorry I ever doubted you! I will support you until the end of time!" The crowd again roared with approval and Obama stepped back to the podium with Hillary at his side.
"We will all work together, ALL OF US!"
As I woke from my horrible nightmare, I realized so much. I sat up in bed and pondered. "You know, I think it's time. It's time to lay down the sword and stand by the side of the best candidate to unify this great nation of ours ..."
