YES WE CAN!!!!!!!!!! YES WE DID!!!!!!!!

It is official; the President of the United States is Barack Obama, an intelligent, passionate, courageous African American man. Never in a million years, or in some of our elders' life times, would they assume they would get the chance to witness such an astounding victory for African Americans. So much surprised and excited that many lack the ability to see past color to capabilities. I would hate for African Americans to have voted for a man solely because he was black!

Thankfully Obama represents change, not only in a sense that America is evolving into a country who is more open to diversity, but in a sense that his platform and campaign stood for RIGHT; stood for CHANGE; stood for every resident of the United States of America’s security, prosperity and well-being. Obama’s campaign was one of the cleanest campaigns I have seen, since I have had the capacity to vote. He did an awesome job. He never succumbed to personally attacks, not dirt or scandal etc. He is an humble, god-fearing man who is not ashamed to proclaim his religious belief. He took that ounce of faith and multiplied it into a legacy.

While I commend those who voted for the first time in their lives, and pray that this will not be the last, I want to also encourage that we do our research. Vote on principle and character, not color. I am proud to have Barack Obama represent my country.



YES WE CAN; YES WE DID.
