Barack Obama - The 44th President of the United States of America

So, he won.

When John Kerry lost in 2004, I was really down because we was doing so well and somehow George Bush won. With Obama, it was never really a tight race. The election was over when he won Pennsylvania and Virginia. Florida and Ohio were just icing on the cake. So instead of being extremely happy about Obama being the first person of color in the White House come 2009, I feel a sense of calm with a tinge of apprehension.

Now the hard part begins. He cannot be just an okay president ... he has to be exceptional, because his blazing a path for any person of color who aspires to be president. He has to try to deliver what he promised to the American people, or else in 2012 he will not be re-elected.

On totally different note: why is Jill Biden trying to steal Michelle Obama's shine with that lime green outfit? You know Michelle gave her some vicious side-eye when she saw her in the color.
