I just wanted to post a couple points that I think people should focus on now that Barack Obama will be our next president. First, he is the president of the greatest country in the world in my opinion and he deserves our up most respect. He is my president and I stand behind him fully. I hold that position very high and I guess that is why you would never find me trashing George Bush. These are all great men and they deserve our respect. Second, our country has come a long way and has elected our first black president. Times have changed and we need to welcome them. In closing I would like to remind you to do whatever you can to understand politics. It is a very complicated subject and you can’t trust everything you hear. Look into the laws being passed, and try to get an understanding there first. Once you have that you can look to see how each person is voting on those laws. That way you can form your opinion of the issues that are important to YOU and not what someone else is telling you. Remember that the media can turn on any president and have a huge control on what we hear. Do your best to look past that to the heart of the issue. Yes most of the mainstream media tends to be more liberal but they can turn on anyone that doesn’t play their game, even President Obama. If that were to happen try not to jump on the bandwagon of trashing him and try to understand why he is making the decisions he is. Remember politics is a game, they will do one thing and blame someone else for it. One guy always ends up taking the heat and in most examples it’s not the true person to blame. I’m sure their will be a fair share of trash going around about President Obama but remember, he is OUR president and we should ALL be proud of him. A president can only be as strong as the people behind him. Let’s do our best to be his rock.
