AP: Obama Has Clinched Nomination
Today is a great day. For the first time in American history, an African-American has clinched a major party nomination for President.
A battle has been won, but the war is still waging. Semifinals are over, now it's time for the championship round.
Dr. King isn't here to celebrate, but he knew this day would come. Grab your handkerchiefs. Today is a great day.
