Its just a new president?
Nobody cares when people become the new priminister, we go about our daily lives.
In case you don't know, America:
- is involved in two wars.
- has a ten trillion dollar debt.
- has the worst economical crisis in decades.
- was lied to about everything for the past 8 years.
- has people who might get away with torture.
- has a prison where it illegally tortures detainees held with no probable cause.
- has legislation which allows you to be legally tortured and have your house searched without a warrant all under the implication of you being a "terrorist".
- is still on the no child left behind system, which absolutely ruined our educational system by focusing only on standardized tests and taking money away from those schools who need it the most.
the list is endless, our country is in absolute shambles right now. obama gives hope to all of us that the old image of our country will be restored and we will once again be respected throughout the world. he offers hope to all the little kids who thought they could never be president because they were black and would never even think of shooting for something like that. he has brought nearly our whole county together and made people get passionate about politics like they never have before.
personally, i don't care about those who voted against him because he was black; nor do i care about those who voted for him because he was black. i read both candidates stances on every issue that is important to our country and have found that beyond all the bullshit of the election, barack obama best represents my views for the country and offers something different than what has absolutely ruined our country for the past eight years. i really hope and believe that he will do an excellent job, and i am absolutely thrilled to see everything play out. needless to say, tomorrow will be awesome.
