Our Next President

Yay! My country didn't let me down again! I know that change comes slow and things won't immediately change on January 20. The world won't wake up to roses. BUT, this is an amazing step for us. I'm so proud.

And here's an amusing tidbit from Newsweek:

The debates unnerved both candidates. When he was preparing for the Democratic
primary debates, Obama was recorded saying, "I don't consider this to be a good
format for me, which makes me more cautious. I often find myself trapped by the
questions and thinking to myself, 'You know, this is a stupid question, but let
me ... answer it.' So when Brian Williams is asking me about what's a personal
thing that you've done [that's green], and I say, you know, 'Well, I planted a
bunch of trees.' And he says, 'I'm talking about personal.' What I'm thinking in
my head is, 'Well, the truth is, Brian, we can't solve global warming because I
f---ing changed light bulbs in my house. It's because of something collective'."
