Had to do it....

I know a lot of people won't agree with is email! However, for a kid who never thought in his lifetime, we would be able to put aside slavery, racism, and the invisible ceiling of where black people and women can go... we did it November 4th. American, yet again, has made history and elected the first black man into office... congratulations Barack Obama!

Now, what is really funny to me about people is the way we react is things. Example #1, gas prices are now down to a low and we are praising the oil gods like they did us a favor. But if you look back, the gas was this way only about a year ago. The barrel of oil price is lower however, the price of gas is higher than it was a year ago. Why are we happy, when actually the oil companies are still making profit on the barrel of oil, and still charging us more. Gas should be clearly under 2 bucks... if the reason why it got so high in the first place, was the cost of the barrel. Why are we not mad?

If you look around the world, the diversity of leaders in other nations are people of color, women, and minorities. America is the land of choice and freedom right? Just got our first taste of diversity in office and some American can predicting the end of the world. Why is America so behind and not upset about it?

His nation is on it way to hell in a hand basket. Schools are bad, banks can't be trusted, corporations are fail because of bad decisions, and CEO's are leaving with millions. Why is this behavior acceptable. Where are all those AMERICANS that what to pray!! Why are we not mad about this?

These are not problems that have happen in 2 days....
