Obama Makes History



As everyone who breathes must know already, Senator Barack Obama is the new President of The United States.

He has made history by being the first Black (or mixed raced,) President of America, he now stands as the epitome of what perseverance, faith and belief in oneself can bring.

The world watched with pride as the best man won the race for the White House, (or the Black House as many are beginning to call it,) and celebrated knowing that we had all just watched history in the making.

Obama now stands as the role model our black youths needed to give them the idea that anything is possible, and to never think that reaching new heights is impossible.

Determination makes anything possible, and the world stood as witnesses to the personification of determination.

People all over the world felt the truimph as their own, and took pride in the moment, knowing that they had just witnessed a tremendous change.

A message that is being passed around sums it up perfectly: Rosa sat so Martin could march...Martin marched so Obama could run... Obama is running so our children can fly.

Say it with me "We Shall Overcome, Yes We Can!!"
