One of my friends had this on her blog, I liked it so much I had to post it on mine.

So we have a new president of the United States of America. I will have to be honest and say that he was not our choice for President and we were disappointed at midnight when we saw the polls.But even though he was not my pick for president, he IS our new President of the United States, he will have my respect as long as he is in office. I might disagree with some if his opinions and my congressmen will hear of them, and thats ok, but I will respect him as a President.He will have 4 years to prove himself and to show us what his plans are for our country. But we have to be united in supporting our president if we want to succeed as a country. I love my country and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else and I am going to try and give my support and my help in being more proactive in my neighborhood, city, and state and being more vocal about changes in our country.Being supportive doesn't necessarily mean you have to agree with the bill or law or proposed law, it means being vigilant of the issues going on today. It means speaking up when you don't agree on a law or a bill that is going through, it means calling your congressmen and being proactive. But let us all be united in making a better future.On that note, I also wanted to comment on what a historical day it was for us and a huge leap forward in having our first African American President Elected. This is an amazing day and age in where we truly are seeing equality.To a new President ....-Cat-
