"Besides, at the end of the day, Obama actually makes me and alot of people to actually really be proud to be an American again"
Thats generally been on ice for a long time hasn't it. For the last ten years two Americas have existed. The America of the mind and the political America. I grew up like most English kids in the 70's absolutely and unreservedly in love with anything American at all. It was a naive adoration that failed to notice the faults that exist within any country, but America was so great it could make your heart pound like it was going to explode at the merest thought.
I'd like to feel that way about America again, and I'd love my daughter Pearl to grow up feeling the way I did as a child when my Dad took me to NY for the first time.
