If anyone wants to believe in magic, this is as good a place to begin. Magic is real, created when more than one person connect with each other to express their good will. In this case, Joe connected with the nation and the nation knew it not, it would take time to come to it's full fruition, but the seed was truly planted and the nation responded, not forgetting it knew not, because it is embedded into our nature, always to respond!
