History in the making...
Senator Barack Obama has accepted the Democratic nomination for President of the United States and Joe Biden as his running mate.
[Me tryin' to kiss Sen. Obama on the cheek at the TV but Barack kept movin'...almost got his mouth (don't beat me up Michelle...just a friendly kiss of support was my intention)-- my husband (a non-Obama supporter) captured the pics]
Barack Obama was short on specifics as to how he would affect CHANGE in his DNC speech, but I don't see that as a BAD THING. Why get into the specifics when you don't have the "full deck of cards in hand" you'll be dealing with in Washington?? To delineate "the how" NOW could only stand as ANOTHER thing to slam Barack about when he may have to CHANGE his approach in light of new information, factors, and circumstances for which he will have NO PRIOR knowledge about UNTIL he is faced with "classified" information that only those in the Presidential circle are privy to.
For now... I'm impressed with Senator Barack Obama because he's in my age range (I'm 40 he is 44), father of ALL daughters as I am, and I just trust that when he says he plans to make America a place for his daughters (however he PLANS to do it SPECIFICALLY) he will. Further, he has support from those who have started to think in a different way about issues such as alternate fuel sources, sustainability, healthcare, education, etc. Those looking for real solutions for the biggest problems we have ever had in the world. My prayer for Barack is that he will ALWAYS have SOUND COUNSEL around him to make and carry out the tough decisions to come (Do you sense me already "crowning him" President of the USA here.) I pray he will develop and strenghthen his innermost spiritual being such that he may tap into it moment by moment and thereby NOT fail in the end. I fully trust that Michelle has his back and that the smiles and love of his own daughters WILL keep him moving forward-- for CHANGE.
