Truthfully, the road was steep for any Republican candidate. While I’m still disappointed that a Democrat was elected, I am not sad or uninspired by this historic day. All of us, both Democrat and Republican want what is best for our country. Albeit, I prefer the Republican path.
Amazing, an African American President Elect. I honestly didn’t know if it was possible.
Let us pledge to judge our next President by his actions and not his race. I still hear far to many racial whisperings to make me comfortable that we have overcome our prejudices. In my lifetime, we have moved as a country from race riots to this historic day. I hope that by the time my children are my age that the thought of discussing race has left our minds.
Mr Obama, good luck, and may God keep you safe.
