A new President, a New Hope for America





At the Neighborhood Ball at Washington's Convention Center, President Barack Obama, said: "First of all, how good-looking is my wife?"

Ya gotta love a man who adores his wife of many years! I am thrilled today to have a new president. I haven't even decided yet why I really LIKE this president. I didn't at first. I wanted Hillary for president and wasn't happy when she was defeated and I had decided I didn't like this "Obama guy"

He won me over!
He won me over with his well spoken words. With his kind gentle manner. With his educated responses. With his education! With his humility and his integrity. I think mostly, his integrity. Finally! A leader we can really look up to. Someone we are PROUD to have our children emulate and want to BE when they grow up. While I understand how very important that this African American man has become our president, I like the fact that Obama himself has stressed that it is the struggling men and women that have fought prejudices and segregation before him that has allowed the acceptance and the tolerance that not only allows a black man to be president but to be overwhelmingly supported.
I am very excited to see what this president does for us. Where he leads. Because I believe THIS MAN has the ability to bring wonderful, enlightening change to our country.
God bless us all.
