And the Next President of the United States is....

Barack Obama! I just finished watching his speech and I'm going to cut this short because my eyes are shutting (I'm exhausted) but was that not an inspirational speech? I don't care if you love him or hate him he has ignited the idea of hope and change. And for those of you who are still not sold...it can't get much worse than the last four years...really it can't. Republicans have had 8 years (I voted for Bush twice, we gave him more than enough chances) to get things right or at least going in the right direction, he didn't. Now as a country we have voted overwhelmingly to do things the Democrats way. Will it be the right way? Nobody really knows, but it's a different way and we don't have any choice now but to support Barack Obama in his efforts. Change is not always a bad thing! Some of our greatest presidents have come when America was desperate for change...Abraham Lincoln, Lyndon Johnson, John F. Kennedy and Ronald Reagen to name a few. You can't "write" Obama off when he hasn't even stepped foot in the White House yet. Hatred is such a wasted emotion. If you don't like this vote, in 4 years we vote again, it's the beauty of a democracy! I was amazed at the humility and grace John McCain showed tonight. He is an admirable and amazing man. We should be proud as a country to have such an honorable man on our side. I've heard a lot of opinions on both sides. This was a tough election season and many people feel passionately on both sides. But I'm asking those with atomicity who are reading this blog to please put your hatred and indifference to the side and support our President, it's the American way and why we are the greatest nation on earth...
