I know that people are probably already tired of hearing about it, but I am still on cloud nine. Although I am extremely disappointed in California and the decision regarding Gay Marriage and also the prison system, I cannot describe how amazing it is to finally see a President in office that I feel good about supporting. This is the first time in many years that I am proud of our Nation's leader. This is a time that will surely go down in history; with both a female candidate and a black candidate, this is an amazing epoch in history.
The look on my son's face when we told him that Obama had won, and the fact that we no longer need to move to Canada, made it all worthwhile.
It has been hard for me here at school to be vocal in my support for Obama, but I was and I am. And now, I get to walk around and gloat.
Going to gloat-

I hear you, girl! Also sad about Prop 8, though. Why the hell do people care so much about what others are doing, just because they disagree with their choices?
I am in the U.K as you know and watched the BBC news on the election. History has been made in America.

It is such an amazing feeling to be excited about supporting a President, there is just a buzz in the air, even in the very red state I live in, albeit Louisville is very blue.
I truly couldn't believe Prop 8 passed!
I'm glad we didn't have to move to Canada, either :)
I'm going to go out and protest Prop 8...
