We even went late to a job interview, we were so enthralled. Not having television (and not liking internet video), this was the first speech I'd heard by the man, and I was simply mesmerized. With a few choice, clear words and relatively unobfuscated oratory (heh ;), he put to shame so much of what has preceded him in the last 20 years or so. He is magnificent. And I agree--this is perhaps the first time in my life I might admit to a stranger that I'm an American.
