    I listened to his speech on the radio as I was driving home from work…That was the most interesting and emotional drive of my life…THIS IS HISTORY! AND I WAS HERE TO WITNESS IT!

    History. I can’t shake that iffy feeling. Just the fact that they had bullet proof glass surrounding him makes my heart drop. I really pray for him, and I hope he leads our country into the direction he’s envisioned.

    Anyways, epic moment…

    i feel stupid for saying this
    &even feeling this…but i am
    truly scared.
    it has only been a day &all i
    hear at school is complaints.
    i couldnt concentrate at all.
    it doesnt matter, but i do go
    to a high school mostly populated
    by white students, but from
    what i hear, “they” dont want
    to be represented by a half
    african american/half caucasian
    president. i heard someone say
    “look at the history of past
    black leaders…their track
    record isnt so good.”
    does it really matter?
    does the color of his skin
    really matter?
    does it matter if he will
    represent our country well?
    plenty of the students at my
    school have big houses with
    big pools and a large closet
    space that is completely filled.
    their parents have money to
    spare…&yet my fellow classmates
    have learned to speak from their
    parents’ perspective.
    “i dont want my money going to
    some lazy ass parents who have
    food stamps, but still have
    enough money to buy their kids
    some jordans!!”
    thats what i heard, &plenty of
    statements like it.
    i feel a great separation,
    &i fear it.

    i greatly fear for him.
    in just one day ive noticed
    so many closeted racists speak
    out. i dont know if past
    presidents have had to give
    their acceptance speech through
    a glass, but its enough to
    send the message that theyre
    scared too.

    im sorry…ive been really
    trying to be optimistic
    &happy for obama, but its
    really hard with everything
    that i am surrounded by.

    I can watch this OVER and OVER…and shed tears because I know he will change the country and make it better. The new improved JFK even Bobby Kennedy said it 40 years ago.

    i clapped and i cried…good things are coming…at last

    thankful for this outcome…he has too much of a presidential touch to not be the next president…I voted in 2004, but this time I actually feel like my vote counted =]. God Bless that man and his family. We <3 you Obama!

    Beautiful speech and real he let us know that we are going to have to work to make us greater than we were. More citizen will take part in our communities to change the hurt that so many of us feel.Our community here in the U.S. can influence our world community…. Damn a racist they are limited by their ignorance and hopefully they’ll kill themselves….
