Election '08
I'm glad it's finally over...I hate the commercials badmouthing each candidate, the fact that there is nothing else on TV, the arguments with my husband =), etc. But I have to say, as I watched the coverage last night and this morning, I was overcome with emotion. Not so much because Obama won...I did vote for him and think he is the best choice...but more because of the awesomeness of the lessons for my children. Awesomeness as in huge!! Number one...the power of democracy and the power of each person's right and duty as a US citizen to vote...no matter who they're voting for. Number two..and most importantly...the fact that FINALLY this country has looked past skin color and chosen a man for his beliefs and not what he looks like. I like what I'm seeing, people, and I like what this says to my kids. I think it's as powerful, if not more, than anything I can preach to them. I have hope that things are looking up...
