The 2008 Election

When the news announced that Barack Obama was the next president, i was so happy. I could not do anything but yell. It was a wonderful experience for a lot of people. Everyone in the quad was outside of there rooms yelling and cheering because of his victory. It was so exciting. Everyone was running around giving peple hugs and saying that we mad it. Some people were looking at us crazy because they wanted McCain to win. He was too old to be a president anyway. I did not think that he was qualify for the job. I believe that everyone should have voted for Obama. He is the one that can get the job done. He is a well qualified man that deserve this title. He has made a difference in so many peoples lives. A lot of people that i knew cried when he won. He is the first african american president. This is something that people thought they wiuld never see. We were always told that black people were no good and would never amount to nothing. Obama is a symbol of achievement for black people. This has been a dream that we never thought would happen. When we was younger and someone said that they wanted to be a president, we would say choose something else because you know that is not true. Today we can tell our children that that is a dream that can be accomplished.
