my president.
January 9, 2009 | Raleigh, North Carolina | Vetting explained
Barack Hussein Obama is and will always be... my president. Centuries of hatred and discrimination have prevented this great country from truly realizing the meaning of it's creed. To say that I am experiencing history is an understatement. I am in all reality experiencing what America was meant to be from the beginning. Even the thought was pushed to the back of minds. After all, the more things supposedly changed... the more they stayed the same. As an American on the brink of a life changing event, i am emmensly filled with a since of pride, not in my race, or president-elect, but in this amazing country i live in. This is our time. This is the real America...
