President Obama

Well there it was today; the inauguration. People from all over came to witness this celebration and moment in history: the first african american president. My mother said there was not only blacks with tears running down their cheeks, but every race. There were whites and asians and others that were touched by this election. It shows great progress as a nation and really means a lot that I'm alive when this day has come. I mean, look how far we've come as a whole. Years ago african americans weren't even considered a human  or given any rights and now an african american is our leader and has the control to give us our rights and run this country to victory. I'm proud to be a part of this great stepping stone into the future.  I can't wait to see and experience the great change and peace that Obama will bring.
