My President Is Black

The Presidential Election
To this day I still cannot believe that I lived to see the day when we would finally come to have a black president. Many of our grand and great-grand parents told us that we may never come to a day where people can accept that other races will begin to run for office and they may have to accept change. With that being said, at first there were many types of rumors placed upon the United States and what may happen when this day came. I cannot say that I didn’t believe that some of the rumors would be proven right, but I did begin to question some of them as the days passed. On the day of the election I could barely sleep as I tried to forget about the progression in the counting of the ballads, and who may become presidential elect. On the following morning I awoke earlier than normal because I was so anxious to find out who had won and what people thought about it. I know for a fact that I will remember that day for the rest of my life because that was the day I actually began to believe that change can come amongst our nation and people could learn to accept reality.
