President -Elect Barack Obama!!!


Well!!! Where do I start? This is the Friday after the election, and I am still not sure if I was dreaming or if it is real, Barack Obama (an African American) is the President of the United States. How did this happen? It just leaves me speechless!

Never could I have imagined, In my lifetime I would witness the election of an African American becoming President of this country. But I just did.

Alone at home with my daughter's cat Nala, I witnessed one of the greatest moments in world history. A moment that left me weeping like a baby. The visual images of the event will forever be ingrained in my spirit. This moment goes down in history as the most historic event of the century.

The visuals of the election and the moment of jubilation are monumental. I know what I felt at that moment, but I wonder what emotions and feelings were running through President-elect Obama at the moment he realized he had won the election. And the reality that he is the President of the United States. I can only imagine.

So in honor to President-elect Barack Obama, this post will focus on him and his election.
The images represent the some of the visuals that enter the world of politics.

And to President Obama, (if you read this blog), you give me hope, that there will be a spiritual, racial, and financial healing for this country. May God Bless You, and the world embrace you for the person that you are. Thanks!
