: We're with Will on this one ....
You are doing the most right now Will...why can't people go on Oprah and just sit down?! Rolling and jumping all on her good furniture...it was an election people, not the Second Coming of Christ, I cried, but he's a politician, so just STOP! Write your Congressman and tell him or her to make sure they vote for Obama's policies, it will do more good than all this nonsense. Get some political *** people!
Ok!! Go'on Will!! I cried and still cry thinking about it!! We have come a long way but still got a ways to go!! Some of the *** in Arkansas are HOT that Obama won!! They constantly talk stuff about him on the blogs like calling him Anti-American, Anti-Christ, and etc....
I'm stoked!! Congrats Obama!!
Good Morning citizens of the United States of America where our President-elect is a strong Black man with a strong Black woman and two beautiful daughters!!!!!!
***, I'm STILL crying!!!! Everytime I see that first photo of the new Black First family I have a wide eyed grin and the tears just flow again. Not to mention the embrace they shared and Michelled whispered to him I love you...........ooh chile Black love gives me goosebumps!!! White America ain't ready fro Cliff and Claire in the White House baby!!!!!
@ virginisland_queen - true that about the families it was such a sight. It really restored my faith in people because it showed that people will do the right thing at the end of the day! even Americans who have been known to make some really crazy political decisions like poor people actually voting for a repblican government like WTF don't they teach history over there?!
I DIDN'T CRY, BUT NOT BECAUSE I WASN'T HAPPY. IT JUST IT'S HARD FOR ME TO SHOW EMOTIONS LIKE THAT. BUT I YELLED AND RAN UP AND DOWN THE STAIRS OF MY HOUSE FROM THE BEDROOM TO THE FAMILY ROOM WATCHING CNN AND MSNBC YELLING "WE DID IT, OBAMA IS PRESIDENT" BUT ONE THING FOR SURE IF ANYONE ELSE IS EXPERIENCING WHAT I'M ABOUT TO SAY PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
EVERY TIME PREZ.OBAMA SPEAK MY WHOLE BODY GET CHILLS AND SINCE NOV.4TH VICTORY WHEN I READ ABOUT IT, VIEW LIKE JUST NOW WITH THIS SMALL CLIP, OR HEAR IT OR TALK TO SOMEONE ABOUT IT. MY WHOLE BODY JUST GET THIS CHILL WHERE I HAVE TO PAUSE FOR A MOMENT. LET ME KNOW.
I WILL BE AT THE SWEARING IN CEREMONY. UNO U CAN REQUEST TICKETS FOR A CLOSER VIEW FROM YOUR STATE REPRESENTATIVE.
@ hzlhoneydew Flag post I CRIED FOR LIKE 10 MINUTES. @TROOPER, THAT PIC IS THE BEGINNING OF MY PHOTOALBUM FOR THE KIDS, IT JUST LOOKS SOOO RIGHT. ---------------------- YEAH, I'M GOING TO MAKE ONE ALSO. SOMEONE SENT ME A EMAIL THAT HAD LIKE 10 NEWSPAPER COVERS FROM AROUND THE UNITED STATES. SHOWING HOW EVERYONE PAPER HEADLINE WAS. I PURCHASED 3 NEWSPAPERS AND PEOPLE MAG AND I'M WAITING ON MY EBONY TO COME IN HE MAIL. I HAVE TWO GIRLS SO I WANT THEM TO REMEMBER AND UNDERSTAND WHAT JUST HAPPEN. MY 2 YEAR OLD ALL SHE SAY BESIDES "DADDY" IS "PRESIDENT OBAMA OR OBAMAAA"
AS MUCH AS I AM HAPPY THAT OBAMA IS THE PRESIDENT ELECT, I ALSO FEEL VERY SORRY FOR HIM. PEOPLE ARE REALLY LOOKING AT THIS MAN TO CHANGE THE WORLD AS IF HE'S JESUS CHRIST. I CAN SEE IT NOW, THE ONE LITTLE MISTAKE HE MAKES, PEOPLE WILL SAY "TOLD YALL, YOU *** LET A BLACK MAN BE PRESIDENT". I HOPE HE KEEPS HIS TEMPERAMENT AND COMPOSER. THIS IS THE TIME TO REALLY STICK TOGETHER AND PRAY FOR HIM, BECAUSE HE HAS A LOT OF BARRIERS AHEAD OF HIM. I'M SURE HE WILL DO FINE. JUST A BIT NERVOUS FOR HIM.
I LOVE My People!!! I LUVVVV My People!!!
My eyes got teary-eyed because I knew the historic milestone we (Americans) had made that ***.
However, I did not cry because Obama became president. Afterall, he is another politician who is all about Rhetoric until his policies are put into action.
Plus, how can I trust a man who has lied so many times already; and about faith of all things! So why would I believe he can *change* the horrible situation we are currently in?
Speaking of *change*, Obama (other than his heritage) is no different than another man that has been in the White House; an Elite man from Harvard or Yale!
WE ALL CRIED EVERYONE FROM EVERY MAKE>>>> I HOPE THAT THIS IS A STEP INTO A BETTER DIRECTION FOR THE PEOPLE...THE USA IS ALWAYS GOING TO BE JACKED UP BUT IF PEOPLE COULD COME TOGETHER LIKE WE DID THAT *** THEN WE WILL BE OK, STOP RACISM AND LOOK AT WHAT IS CREATED BARACK OBAMA HE IS A DIRECT RESULT OF PEOPLE COMING TOGETHER...THAT IS THE RESULTS WHEN WHITE PEOPLE, BALCK PEOPLE, SPANISH, MEXICAN, INDIAN WHATEVER COME TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE BEAUTIFUL THINGS!!!! ONLY OF WE COME TOGETHER
I cried. I cried for my grandfather who fought for this day but was not alive to see it.
I cried for all of the young black men who now understand that success is not JUST on the basketball court or in the studio.
I cried for my son because he now wants to be President in 50 years.
I cried for Obama because they are going to rake the coals over him and try to prove to America that although he won by a landslide, he still isn't up to par to be President.
We still have a lot of work ahead. I am still crying, praying, and asking God to help him.
He needs us more now than he did Nov 4th.
GOD BLESS BARACK OBAMA! GOD BLESS AMERICA!!
