Barack Obama, a 47-year-old first-term senator from Illinois, shattered more than 200 years of history Tuesday night by winning election as the first African-American president of the United States.

Wrote 3 years 14 weeks 20 hours 26 sec agoI was in tears tonight watching Obama's speech. I can't believe one day I will be able to tell my children that I witnessed this monumental event. Cars were honking, people were screaming, and there was this bolt of energy in the streets of NYC when they announced the news. I will always remember tonight. Thank you Obama for giving us all HOPE. Big Congrats!
