New U.S. President!
Today at 12:04 this afternoon President-elect Obama became President Obama, the 44th U.S. President. The amount of people that went out in the cold to watch history today reached over 1 million. I read that their where people crammed 10 deep along the route President Obama traveled, and thousands at the National Mall. This is a day a lot of people will never forget, mainly because Barack Obama is our first black President. He will be moving into a home that slaves help build, that’s history. I wonder what slaves where thinking when they took part in building the walls of the White House. If those walls could talk I would bet they wouldn’t say a word, but just simply smile. We’ve come so far as a young country, and if we want to go further we need to unite once again. President Obama has a chance to bring this country back together. And I sure hope he does just that.
