My fellow Democrats, my fellow Americans, I am here to say yes. Yes. Yes, I will serve you and yes I accept the candidacy for the President of the United States of America.

I believe in many things and the things that I believe in are many. There are so many things that we can all believe in and our beliefs can be numerous. We can all have many beliefs, if we believe that we can have them.

Let nobody tell you that it is going to be easy. Nothing is easy, not even pealing an apple or attaching a synthesiser to the end of a trumpet. Nothing is easy and at the same time it is easy to do nothing. My fellow Democrats, my fellow Americans, we cannot sit back and do nothing, that would be the easy option, even though, at times, doing nothing is hard. We must sit up and take the hard decisions that make doing nothing easy and at the same time make doing something easy too.

I believe in change and hope and I will offer as President of the United States of America both change and hope. My fellow Democrats, my fellow Americans, we cannot have change unless we have hope and we cannot have hope, unless we have change. I believe we can change our hopes so that hope and change combine and live like a puppy in a New England beach house.

Hope. Hope. What is hope? Hope is the power to change America and with this hope we can hope that change will come and with change will come further hope for more change and once the change is made then we will have change and hope and hope and change.

We need to build a new coalition that believes in hope and change, so that no child in America is left behind by hopes that do not include their own hopes and changes that do not include their own changes. That is why, today, I pledge that in the first one hundred day of my Presidency, I will recruit twenty thousand more teachers so that every child in America can enjoy the hope that is membership of a local Jasper Club. Let there be no more places where there is not a Jasper Club.

I look at my own hands and see fingers, thumbs and palms. I look into the hands of the future and I see technological fingers, thumbs and palms. We must prepare for this new tomorrow by looking into the future and seeing that the past is part of the future and the future is part of the past. Without this we cannot build the new change that comes from hope.

My fellow Americans, my fellow Democrats, I look into the eyes of kitten and I see such energy. That is why I will send thirty thousand kittens to Iraq so we can stop this war.

John McCain talks of kittens and puppies, but he cannot see the puppy or the kitten as I see it. I have a view that takes the kitten and the puppy and offers them new hope by changing every kitten into a new biofuel kitten so that we no longer have to rely on the Middle East for kittens and falcons.

My fellow Democrats, my fellow Americans, I stand before you today in the Milwaukee SkyDome and say this: I AM READY TO SERVE AMERICA.
