[FONT="]I have thought long and hard about my reaction to the man I did not vote for becoming President. Today I have my answer. President Obama is living the American Dream. The history of the United States has not been kind to African Americans. They were imported as slaves and were so for almost 90 years. After the American Civil War, they were brought out of slavery and into a second class citizen status with few rights. African Americans only received full rights half a century ago and had to endure a lasting prejudice afterward. President Obama's election has proven the progress that our society has made and will continue to make. He proves that anyone can be who they want to be. Make the right decisions, work hard coupled with a few other good virtues and the possibilities are endless. The American Dream does not lie with government or the President himself, it lies within each and every one of us.
I wish President Obama the best of luck enduring the turbulent waters called politics.[/FONT]

NOTE: I kept Politics out of this and I hope others will do the same.
