so as you can see Obama has won the 2008 presidential elections and is now going to be out new president in 2009 !
i am extremely happy and cannot express my feelings at the moment through words.
All i can mention is that i am/was 100% towards Obama since square one!
in general i was never into politics because i always knew i was under 18 and it never applied to me but for some reason this year it all changed.
I wanted to follow the race as much as i could, i think what drew me closer into it was the fact that it was the first time a colored man , and a woman were running for president.
That fact definitely pulled my attention in !
i never really thought about it until my dad mentioned it but he told me that he voted for Obama FOR ME. because by the time I'm a working woman, Obama will still be my president and that's exact ally the kind of president ill need when I'm a working woman. it will also make America a better place by the time i get older.
which leads to the fact that there is SO much pressure on obama's shoulders at the moment, i keep thinking about how much pressure he must have , trying to fulfil every ones needs that he promised by the new year.
i really do hope him the best in filling in those needs !
another quick thing that i would like to bring up because i will always want to remember this one moment for the rest of my life was when i heard Obama was president on the news, i heard such a rage of noise outside. now my dad lives in union square so right away we took a midnight walk in the streets. it was CRAZY there were millions of nyu students and grown-up , teens,tweens,kids, EVERYONE walking around honking ,screaming,yelling,laughing, i just saw so much joy. it was such a good sight and i really havnt seen anything like it before, it was bigger then a fair or parade it was amazing.
you could really tell that Obama is the most loved man in the country at the moment, i just loved the feeling of joy rushing down the streets ! i wish it was like that every-time i walked down the streets !
