A Brave New America ~ A Brave New World

11.7.08
Admittedly, anyone would look good after baby bush, but Barack Obama is someone very, very special. Let us look to his sincerity and clear vision knowing that he cannot change the world but only lead us as we change the world.

I have never been more proud to be an American.
Our shining new president was elected on the merit of his character. The fact that his African American heritage was not a factor but merely a fact is testament that we have truly grown as a people and as a nation.
We have entered a Brave new America and a Brave New World.

I am so Excited, I am so Inspired, I am so Proud !

Look behind you ...Mwahahahahah

Happy Halloween !!!
