I have the same bills, the same amount of money in the bank, my dishwasher is still broken, and my 5 month old beagle won't stop peeing on my carpet. Everything in my life is exactly the same as it was 30 minutes ago; and yet I feel as though everything is different.<BR/>I feel so much hope. I feel so much pride. I feel like my one vote was a single drop of water in a great Tsunami of change. I feel like I was one of a million voices screaming in the night, " I love my country and I'm taking it back!" I'm so proud of the country that I love and have so much hope in my heart that we can together heal the wounds that have been such a source of pain and anger to us all.<BR/>I know Obama isn't going to fix the economy overnight, I know he won't be able to provide healthcare to all Americans by February '09. I know Obama isn't a Messiah who four years from now will have turned this country into a fabled utopia. But I also know Obama will make moral decisions. I know Obama will try to unite where others try to divide. I know Obama will help to make America the beacon of hope it once was to others. I know that at 27 years of age, I witnessed one of the most important and hopefully glorious chapters in American history.<BR/>I know hope."</I>Handsome B.

I am proud of my fellow citizens for coming out and doing something historic and needed for the world. <BR/><BR/>As soon as I knew he was elected I felt a change. I know it sounds silly but I did. I felt like I was in a new world where anything was possible. And I still feel that way. <BR/><BR/>I think this will be a new era of co-operation in America but also around the world. Obama represents open-mindedness that is necessary to solving the worlds problems.Handsome B.

Most times I think it's a matter of choosing the lesser of two evils.<BR/><BR/>But Obama does give us hope for a change. I think it is time for a chance. The republicans had their chance. Now it's time for a new leader.Polar Bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09042280087446534146noreply@blogger.com
