Well... I cried too. But for a completely different reason.
I'm feeling many things about this election. One of them is perhaps a sense of pride that America is getting over its prejudice.
Another is one of frustration. I wish race wasn't an issue at all. I think we have a lot more growing to do as a country.
I'd like to see a day when a black man can run for President and it not even be brought up that he's black. I'd like to see the issues be the only thing that matters.
I do think that Obama has the country's best interest at heart and that gives me hope. But I can't feel like our country has made a giant leap forward when there are so many moral issues at stake (abortion, gay rights, etc.).
I wish Alan Keys could have won. <sniff> I would have been VERY proud to have him as our President.
