obama '08

Nov 5, 2008
so starts the year of change. 

i just got a disturbing look of disgust from a roommate's friend:

"hey kasie, guess what, MY president's black."

---really...i didn't notice.
if this is the type of change this brings forth, then no, i still want the maverick. 

god i hope he proves me wrong
4 years
all the democrats in the street are going crazy [esp. college students] shouting fuck you, fuck you to republicans. this is real mature guys. yes, i see that this is a big change in america, for a black man to be president, but this isn't all that you should have voted him for. half of these people don't know the very beginning of how policies work within the government...and it makes me sad that our nation was so divided these past few months because we simply wanted *change.* ask yourself what kind of change you wanted to see--change for a black man to sit on the hot seat and not a white man?  
it'll take more than one obama to change where we are now, but for the sake of our country, for the sake of my children's country, let's hope obama can carry forth the heavy reforms we all want...
