Barack Obama

I just watched some video of barack obama in hawaii, just another hawaiian making it big in the world,...well he made it the BIGGEST one could make it. i am so proud of him, and so hopeful for what he has the potential to do for this country. he has really been thinking about the issues and planning them for years awaiting his chance in the white house. there is a lot to clean up, we all know that, and we all need to understand it can't be fixed in a day, or possibly even his 4 year term, but he definitely has the ability, smarts and power to make a lot of change for the better. he knows what needs to be done and is ready to start working on it.

thinking about how slavery was once a reality, it was the life of african american people, and now, in this day, we have a african american president of the United States of America, voted by the american people of all races. he blew john mc cain out of the water and turned 6 states from red to blue. and like our president elect said during his acceptance speech, we are not red, or blue, we are the United States of America. we need to stop seeing a line between races, and we have to stop seeing a line between political parties, and all come together to make this country the best it can be. i sound really serious right now, but i guess i am in a serious mood. i really am extatic that Barack is going to be our next president. not only is he the first black president, which is a huge step forward for america, but he is a president that is loved by everyone regardless of his race, he is a promising president, someone who thinks straight, rather than crooked, the way the past presidents have. he could possibly end up being the most decorated president in history! and i cannot wait to be a part of it, experience it, live it.

there is a lot of hope in this country,...finally.
