My Hope has been Renewed!

Thank You Barack Obama for restoring my Hope!

These last 8 years have been rough ... Gas prices through the roof, foreclosed mortgages, failing schools... and the list goes on and on... But you promised us that Change was gonna' come, and you delivered!

Thank you. Thank you for giving my family hope! Thank you for getting Zoe so amped up that she almost cried because she thought that we weren't going to be able to vote! Thank you for getting Miles ecstatic whenever he heard your name. OBAMA!!!

Your resolve was definitely tested. They attacked you with ridiculous claims, but you stood strong. You remained calm. You spoke so eloquently. Thank you.

Thank you for bringing us together as a people at a time where we needed it so much.

Thank you for being a strong black man. Thank you for showing America what we are truly capable of. Thank you for shattering that so called glass ceiling that has held us back for so long. Thank you for giving me tears of Joy! Thank you for making my hands shake (almost uncontrollably) as I pressed that VOTE button! Thank you for restoring my Hope!

And as I sit here waiting for your acceptance speech, I thank you in advance, because I know that whatever you do, and what ever you say it will be great!

Yes you can Barack Obama. Yes You Did!

Newspapers were flying off the racks the day after the election. I started to get one, then I said no. When I came back to the store to pick up a paper, they were all gone! Then I found out that newspapers were selling on Ebay for like $150.00. Man! Truly this is history.
