Yes we DID!
November 6, 2008 | Austin, Texas | Vetting explained
Obama's election as President says to me that we are working hard to get over our past. It shows that those of us who will not tolerate prejudice of ANY kind and teach this to our children can and DID make a difference.
His election also showed any person who runs a dignified, intelligent and well run campaign with a candidate equaling the same qualities can and DID win the Presidency.This was actually something I feared was lost in our country having witnessed previous elections.
His election above all gives me hope for the mixture of people that make up America and hope for my Grand kids as they grow into adults that they will not witness the same hatreds we have seen through our nations history.
Last I pray we all remember NO President can make any changes alone and I hope we support him (and any good ones who come after him) as strongly in his coming endeavors as we did in his campaign.
