Hail the new Commander in Chief

I must admit, my choice for President didn’t come to pass on November 4th, but there are things more important then my choice. Our country comes first and foremost, our greatness in the world scene depends on our ability to come together and act as one.

We need to prioritize our feelings as Americans, not republicans or democrats. The healing of the division of an unduly long campaign has left us bitter and feeling numb. But the truth of the matter is we should only be republicans or democrats in election time. We need to heal our country, fix our internal problems, and repair the view that other countries have about us.

This is the time to prove that the President can actually walk the walk, and not just talk the talk. It will be the time for the President elect to experience what all presidents of the past have, and make the right decisions based on the well being of all Americans. He will have to set his personal feelings and desires aside. He will make mistakes, all Presidents do, but hopefully the mistakes he makes will not hurt us as a people, or have long lasting effects.

In 4 years we will once again judge his performance, and either grant him another 4 years or make the choice to have someone else represent us. We should be proud that we are unique in the world, in that we make these choices directly FROM the people. The majority of the people have spoken, and their pick was the senator from Illinois, to be the President from Illinois, may God and his conscience guide him.
