For the first time in all my 18 years, I can finally say that I've witnessed a historic moment in our nation's history that I may be absolutely proud of - not terrified of. On November 4, 2008, Barack Obama was elected President of the United States of America. That makes him the first African-American president in the long line of 43 Caucasian U.S. presidents. And in the midst of the darkest moments of our country, he promised a chance for change. The man certainly has a lot to live up to. I'm tired with how much America has flopped on so many issues, and now we don't have a lot to thrive on as we've dug ourselves into a deeper whole. Fortunately for us, Obama's our key and symbol of hope that there may be a way to get this place back on its feet. Furthermore, he has my support, all the way.
I wish my great-Uncle had witnessed it. I really wished he had.
I've got my fingers crossed for our future. We're all counting on you, Obama!
