Part 5: Yachatz

Matzah lies at the heart of the traditional seder. Likewise, Obama's victory lies at the heart of ours. In the place of a piece of Matzah, the leader of the seder hides the postcard sent out to all of the Obama supporters. On one side of this postcard is a picture of Barack and Michelle Obama, and Joe and Jill Biden, at Grant Park on election night. On the other side is a letter to Obama's supporters, thanking them for their hard work and expressing the hope that the country will work together to make change and progress in the coming weeks, months, and years. Throughout the seder, the children try to find this postcard, which must be recovered before dessert.
