CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
A new day has dawned, people. I say this mainly because I recently woke up. But nonetheless, history has been made. I'm behind our new president. I'm an American, and this is the way my parents raised me.
Now comes the hard part, dunnit? Are you big enough not to gloat, not to proceed with an air of superiority, not to cry "racist" at every turn? Obama's landslide proves the lie that Republicans are nothing but mean-spirited goons. If that were true, the 'Pubs would have at least come close to stealing the election. Many enthusiastic pols just sat there, seeking proof to their own mean-spirited theories, that Republicanism=evil. They are wrong. They are also wrong about America being a racist country. If it were, this historic election would not have happened. Somehow I think many will still refuse to admit that. (Although they are still some pockets of racism, like American Indians, where we most assuredly are. Democrats are probably worse than Republicans in this one. Sadly, it all comes down to political clout.)
So now we ALL have to work together. Accept the fact that there are people who have different opinions and outlooks than yours. Don't dismiss them because they do. And don't just take your ball and go home when you feel that you have they power and they, whomever they may be, don't.
Time will tell. And God blessed America!!!!
