Today, after watching the inauguration of President Elect Barack Obama, I felt that sense of vigorous integrity of what it means to be an American. In short listening to President Obama speak, made me, as an individual feel proud to be an American. I believe that history is often forgotten and I am more then grateful that President Obama rekindled on the subject of our founding fathers and how far we as a nation, as a whole have come, and also of how far we need to go. Its all been said by President Obama, how we are at war, how our economy (one of which used to be so great) is now weakened, how greed and irresponsibility was in our government, how we have made poor choices to prepare the nation for the future, how our housing market is down, how businesses are on the brink of collapsing, how the climate is changing for the worst, and how we as nation must change for the better in order to prevent the worst to come. There was something about Obama while he stood there today, something that reassured me that we will change, and that we will become one again as a nation, that we as Americans have the virtues, the spirit, the will, and the determination to change for the better. This is a new age and I believe that President Obama addressed that as clear as can be, and how we will pull through the storms, through all that will come and how we will stand as one and take on whatever challenge is addressed. I am more then eager to see what this man can do for his nation. And I am also honored to welcome you into office. So i say this, welcome to a new beginning, welcome to change, welcome to work to be done, welcome to a new realm of hope, and welcome President Barack Obama.
