We have made history and I lived to see it. Our country has elected a man of color to be President of the United States of America.
It's about time.
I wonder though, if anyone has thought past the historical event at the world wide implications? There are countries the will react unfavorably to an African American no matter what his office. The mere mention of his name, a Muslim name, will change the course of relations to countries, people, and our face to the world.
I am far from a racist and never will be racist. I am overjoyed that we have overcome the stodgy old white power mongers, and I am hopeful that this really will bring change to our country that is much needed.
Let's just see if it happens though, or is he like the rest? Full of promises but never able to deliver.
It's all over but the shouting, let's see if he has blown smoke up our collective asses.
