Hello，Chicago!芝城父老，别来无恙，余尝闻世人有疑，不知当今美利坚凡事皆可成就耶?开国先贤之志方岿然于世耶?民主之伟力不减于昔年耶?凡存诸疑者，今夕当可释然。——今夕之释然，皆蒙美利坚民众之协力学塾祠庙之外，市井乡野之间，万千父老心焦似焚，苦待竟日，愿献一票之力。其中，平生未尝涉国事者，数亦不少，而今有此义举，皆——因一念不衰今夫天下，非同既往，愿发吁天之声，必成动地之势。It’s the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Hispanic, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled.
