Barak Obama has just been elected the next president of the United States and I am proud and sad at the same time.
I am sad that when I stepped into the voting booth today I still did not know who I was going to vote for. I want to be moved, impressed, and motivated by a candidate. I want to be passionate about the people and things that I support... not confused.
I am proud that the reign of the white man, as president, has ended. I am proud that Martin Luther King's dream has moved one step closer to reality.
Dr. King dreamed that some day little black boys and girls would be able to hold hands with little white boys and girls. Those little boys and girls must be allowed to live before they can hold hands with each other. I am sad that the unborn don't have a voice and I am sad that so many of my christian brothers and sisters think this is the only issue.
I had so much to say when I started this and now there is nothing. I am just sad about the whole thing and I wouldn't feel any different if the other guy had won.
