I stand in awe

In a country where African-Americans were counted as property instead of people, Americans elected a Black President.

In a country where it was illegal for a person of African ancestry to learn to read and write, Americans elected a Black President.

In a country where Blacks were not allowed to enter the same establishments as Whites, Americans elected a Black President.

If you've come to this blog looking to argue and debate political positions, I'm sorry, you can save that for another day.
Today, I'll be too busy looking my child in the eye and telling him:

"Son, you can be anything you want to be; Even President of the United States of America."
