History

Yesterday...Tuesday November 4th, 2008. A moment that will forever be remembered as a defining moment in American history- the election of Barack Obama as the first African-American President of the United States Of America...and I was in the city of Chicago when it all occurred... the tense waiting while the votes were counted, the gracious concession speech of the opposing candidate and the historic address to the nation of the President elect... It is historic.
I may not believe in all of his ideals or agree with all of his policies I will support our leader and pray that God will use him as an instrument of change and growth.

I think that it is very important that people support our new President without condemning him before he has even had the chance to prove himself. : )

I got so tired of there being more anti-Obama than Pro-McCain on the Republican side, most clearly illustrated by the microcosm populated by people I know from home...

Knowing that no one candidate will never satisfy everyone, I respect people who choose to stand behind him whether or not they completely agree with him.
