Problems Abound
So, as President Obama starts his new job, it is clear he has a lot on his agenda (remember, there’s still healthcare, social security, alternative energy, and a few other campaign issues to address). Even though I wasn’t an Obama supporter, I believe his presidency is one of the real bright spots for our country. Whether you voted for him or not, the historical significance and what it says about the possibilities of our country, reaffirms our country’s greatness. I wasn’t sure I would be around long enough to see an African-American become president. God knows we still have plenty of social problems to contend with in our country, but maybe President Obama’s example will inspire “a new generation of Americans” (as President Kennedy once said) to help solve many of the problems we face. We need all the help we can get.
