my take
Yeah, Yeah, so yesterday was a "historic" day and I wrote about Ice cream. Give me a break, I'm sickly and weak and faint and I have a really bad hangnail.
So today, here's my take on it all. I'm proud that our country was able to vote in a Black man. I know that racism still exists today but, I hope that his skin color isn't the only reason people voted for him. I didn't vote for him, and pretty much disagree with everything he stands for. (Although I will admit, I wasn't overly thrilled with George W. either.) Life in the US is pretty shaky right now and I imagine will only get worse before it gets better. My prayers are with President Obama and those he's chosen to lead our country. It's going to be a long hard road for all involved.
