I guess I'll start this off. It was a great speech, I thought. Particularly powerful was the line, "for if we are truly created equal, then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal as well."
What do you think?

Oh, and I gotta say I really liked this line as well: "Progress does not compel us to settle centuries-long debates about the role of government for all time -- but it does require us to act in our time."
