There's something happening when Americans who are young in age and in spirit, who have never participated in politics before, turn out in numbers we have never seen, because they know in their hearts that this time must be different.

Yes, we can repair this world. Yes, we can.

But in record numbers, you came out. And you spoke up for change. And with your voices and your votes, you made it clear that at this moment, in this election, there is something happening in America.

Whether we are rich or poor, black or white, Latino or Asian, whether we hail from Iowa or New Hampshire, Nevada, or South Carolina, we are ready to take this country in a fundamentally new direction.

We can bring doctors and patients, workers and businesses, Democrats and Republicans together, and we can tell the drug and insurance industry that while they get a seat at the table, they don't get to buy every chair.

Well, first of all, I want to congratulate Senator Clinton on a hard-fought victory here in New Hampshire. She did an outstanding job. Give her a big round of applause.

We will end this war in Iraq and bring our troops home.

There is something happening.

That is why tonight belongs to you.

Nothing can stand in the way of the power of millions of voices calling for change.

We can stop sending our children to schools with corridors of shame and start putting them on a pathway to success.
