History has been made

The results are in, and they are pretty big results. We all knew by the end of the night we would have a new President, and many of us hoped for a historic event, and we got it. For the first time in the history of our nation we have elected an African America as President of the United States of America. With the election of Barack Obama not only have we made history, but with an over whelming voice the people of this country have spoken, and the message is clear; Yes we can! My good friend Joe Stump says it beautifully in his post:

As I type this an African American is the President elect of the United States. Let that sink in a bit. The people of the United States have made a strong stand against the agents of intolerance. They’ve said with resounding thunder that religious zealots, war mongers and ignorant people have no place in our great nation. If you’re against gay rights, against a black President, in favor of endless war for oil, or against renewable energy we’ve risen up and clearly stated your ignorant and bigoted views of the world are not welcome.

I agree with Joe, and I join him and the rest of the majority of this nation in welcoming this change for good.
