    God help me, when i saw the whole family walking on to the stage i started filling up. Is it wrong to be this emotional and not be an American?

    One of the stations showed a big street party outside the railings of The White House a few mins ago. Was there in September. Would really love to be there right now. The atmosphere must be amazing :o

    I think they are celebrating the end of the empire. Did they not cut to Coruscant after that?
