Obama and Ignorance...

First of all...let me start by saying I am extremely excited that Obama is offically my president. He has paved the road for so many americans to not only to become president....but to achieve to become greatness. My grandparents who drunk out of seperate fountains, couldn't use the same bathroom, couldnt eat at the same resturants as whites, were allowed to witness the moment in history. My child, who will not remember this moment but will be reminded, will grow up with hope and ambition knowing that nothing can stop her or stand in her way of doing what ever in life she chooses to no matter where she came from or what she looks like. Now...ignorance. Ok now...some people have never even heard the man speak...they just voted because he was black. "MY president is black..blah blah blah" thats pure ignorance. Who says just because a person is black or white man or woman determines their ability to run the country?? Next...change. Our country and economy didnt start collapsing in the course of a day or a month so why do people expect for immediate change as soon as obama steps foot into th3 white house?? It really scares me that because things wont chnage over night america is gonna start loosing hope and stop believing. Obama said yes we can...CORRECTION...yes we did...and i have faith that WE WILL.
