Barack Obama's electrifying speech remembered on anniversary of historic election win

Nine years after Barack Obama's election as the 44th President of the United States, supporters of the former leader are sharing footage of the "electrifying" speech he gave marking the historic victory. America's first black President was met with cheers and screams as he recognised the diversity of the electorate who turned out to vote. "If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible, who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time, who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer," he said.
