I'm never one to raise a stink. I don't bring up politics or who I'm voting for/not voting for unless someone brings it up first because, frankly, it's not really anyone's business. But today I cant ell you that I am proud to admit that I voted for Barack Obama.
I didn't vote for him because he's black. I voted for him because he hass promised the change that this country so desperately needs. I voted for him because he will strive to keep those who can't afford health insurance (like my best friend and her 2 year old) able to go to the doctor. He will cut taxes on those who are already penny pinched and tax those who can afford it. He will work on a plan to get us out of Iraq and out of Afghanistan.
Will he be perfect? No. Nobody is, but I have faith that he has the best interest of the country at heart. He loves America and he will strive to make our country better than it ever has been.
To those who voted for McCain, I give my condolences. I'm sure he would have done a fantastic job. But this country has had enough of Bush and his Republican doctrine. McCain would have been more of the same. I hope we can all band together as Americans -- not Republicans and Democrats -- and support our country.
