[mdotte]

[03silverbullet]

"damn, i owe my mom $100."

 

[nt og]

I was pretty much in shock.

"Obama won."


I voted for him btw.

 

[illmaticsoulchild]

I was proud of America for being open enough to bring upon a day I thought would take several more decades to come.

 

[xxhonchoxx]

I was like, "Okay." like any other president.

Well I understand the progress people all think we made atleast in terms of racial advancement. But in reality if u think of him as a normal person like I do.He's just another president elected that makes lots of promises during his campaign . Now the question is, will he be like the others before and onlydeliver 10% of what he told the people? We will find out. Though I'll be honest, I'm not as optimistic as most are. Especially since I think thatpeople over estimate the power that the president really has in this country. Which besides being a figure-head isn't all that much.

I was with my girl.....
actually went to the bathroom for a sec....
12 am (Alantic Time) mom calls me up....in the back of my mind i know its good news
I hear my mom yelling and crying at the top of her lungs saying that 'WE DID IT'
I got down on my knees
And gave it up to the LORD ....

At the exact moment I was telling my cousin to S TFU

2008 shoeheads ftl

 

[rwfanatic]

I was shocked that he actually won, not because I don't think that he doesn't deserve it but more so that there was no cheating and he didn't loseby some fluke. And also hoping that he stays safe out in this crazy world.

 

[americandream]

I teared up but didn't let a tear fall cuz my aunt was sitting next to me.








I'm white since that matters

[trillipinotrapstar]

Screamed outside, then felt a sense of optimism whenObama spoke.

 

[geminifly]

I started calling and texting people, telling them that my President was Black while playing the song in the background.

 

[bws foot soldier]

"R.I.P America 1776 - 2008"

 

[phaze1123]

I almost cried...still hard to believe. I was proud of my fellow Americans unlike after the last election

 

[deletedelete]

i was crying tears of joy. like....bawling... i hadn't wanted or cared about something so much in so long.... and when he made his speech i lost it again

 

[triplexl vol 2]
