Tough of course.
Doesn't feel good haha.
But I kind of expected this all along... the situation was just right for Obama to win.
Many had their doubts because he was black... but it was way more then that. (meaning the situation was way bigger then that)
As an American, he's my President. I'll be rooting for him to do good things because I don't want him to mess up our country.
So my prayers will be with him in likely difficult times.

I have the USA in my sig for a reason.
I love this country way more then I could ever hate a political candidate.
So in the end that's what matters.


Wish more conservatives people thought like you. It's a damn shame when people are blindedby hate for a political party.

White/Indian folks in my area were clearly Obama supporters because they all shooting off a couple of shots, police around here ain't used to all that atall. This place ain't as quiet as I thought it was.

i agree was just talking to pops and he said the same thing. just got back from the store with some bubbly to celebrate. i'm glad he won because i votedfor him.... but i do not envy him he is going to be scrutinized for every move he makes. I wish him and our country all the best. We need some positive changeand i really hope he can deliver it.

"We won" because for so long our "we" didn't count.

"We won" because my kids have somethin to aim for.

"We won" because since we were given the right to vote "we" have been voting for white men while white men wouldn't vote for"us"

Yes, "we won"
"We" are seein the fruits of "our" parents, grandparents, and great grandparents labor

"We won" because most of the country no matter race chose barack obama to be our president.
So yea, "we won" on a whole as a society, no division here. If anything this is more about unity.
