I just got done watching the inauguration of President Obama. And gosh darn it if I didn't get a little teary during the whole thing!! I thought the whole campaign slogan thing "Can we make a difference? Yes we can!" was a little hokey. I rolled my eyes when he won. But watching President Obama's inauguration speech today, I was moved and hopeful for this nation. I believe that he can make a difference. I believe that we as Americans have a great opportunity to make for ourselves a better nation. I think that any person who would serve as President of the United States must love their country. I hope that the next 4 years are a fulfillment of the hopes and promises made today. I love this country and I feel so blessed to have been able to witness the democratic process in action. Though I didn't vote for Barack Obama, I am hopeful for the future. I believe that where much is given, much is required, and I am ready to do my part to help keep the United States if America the greatest nation on Earth. God bless America!!
