Though any speculation on how he will govern is largely rhetorical, I am wildly optimistic. Not just because he's the President-elect, but because of the ripple affect his election has caused. The unifying result of his candidacy is undeniable, and the belief that government must ultimately serve the people just got a good dusting off.
My point is, it's not just about Obama. He did not elect himself.
It's not simply about being African American. If every AA in the US (including the children) voted for him, he would still have been about 80% shy of winning the election. If anyone here attended the rally, you saw a sea of color that would put Pantone to shame.
No, I'm not burned out, and I refuse to leave my boy hangin'. I'm down for the long haul and if you voted for him you should be too.
