I just witnessed a great moment in American history. It is a moment comparable to man first landing on the moon. Barack Obama, an African-American, has been elected to be the 44th President of the United States. This to me is one of the greatest times in which to be living. Hopefully, it will be a transcendent moment in our country’s history. I am elated at the possibilities and hopeful for the future. Looking back to last night, I now wish that I could have been in Chicago to hear his acceptance speech. It is the first time I’ve ever voted Democrat, but I’m proudest for voting this time more than any other time I’ve ever voted.
Hopefully, those that didn’t vote for him will still be willing to work with him and not be held back by a person of color leading our country. After all, we are all immigrants to this great country, it’s just that some came before others.
