the dream of our founding fathers?

[jah_yout]

mi hear obama on election night say finally america lived up to the dream of its founding fathers...
was this really their dream? (washington, jefferson and other slaveowners who didn't count africans as a full human being);
was his statement accurate?
i guess it sounds good to say
