"My Obama moment was watching his victory speech in Grant Park after he won the 2008 election. I was sitting in my San Francisco apartment with my three roommates and feeling overcome with emotion: excitement about the years to come under his presidency, victorious that a president I voted for had won for the first time, and moved beyond words to be experiencing such a proud and historic moment." — Becky Kirsch, senior director of content strategy
"My favorite moment was when the world first realized he won the first election.
