Obama, Obama, Oh Wow!!!!

I know I haven't posted in awhile and I will get to posting some photographic entries, but I just had to write about the win for our new president elect Barack Obama, so humor me for a moment. I am so excited about America's choice for Barack. I went to vote yesterday putting my vote in for Obama and praying that this time my selection would be the winner, being from Florida I was a little worried. Never in my wildest dream did I think in my lifetime (and I'm young) that we would have a black president, I'm proud to be apart of this process, I'm happy for my children to witness this, and I'm glad that people like my grandmother, who paved the way could witness this. I remember reading as a little girl about the civil rights movement and doing research, paper after paper about black power, Martin L. King's dream and equal rights and now my children can enjoy this in their history books. I can remember telling some of my older relatives about how much times have change and now they can see exactly how much so. If you can appreciate anything about last night you have to appreciate this,the fact that once again blacks, whites, hispanics, asians, every color, race and religion came together and made change possible. You got to love America, I know I do!
