... to the new White House.

--Applause--

And while she's no longer with us, I know my grandmother's watching, along with the family that made me who I am. I miss them tonight. I know that my debt to them is beyond measure.

To my sister Maya, my sister Alma, all my other brothers and sisters, thank you so much for all the support that you've given me. I am grateful to them.

--Applause--

OBAMA: And to my campaign manager, David Plouffe...

--Applause--

OBAMA: ... the unsung hero of this campaign, who built the best -- the best political campaign, I think, in the history of the United States of America.

--Applause--

To my chief strategist David Axelrod...

... who's been a partner with me every step of the way.

To the best campaign team ever assembled in the history of politics...
