The Election

For the first time in my life, I'm sad that I live in Oklahoma. Why? I'm sad about the people who live here. I'm sad about the way they perceive life. I'm sad about the stereotypes they carry and the fear they have of something new. But I'm glad how the election ended, but it's just sad that people are so horrible. I'm afraid for some of these people who are afraid of Obama being president. What are they gonna do? What are they gonna think? How are they gonna react to so many things that happen in the coming years. Ugh, it's so strange and so horrible. People don't put enough blame on themselves and like to blame other people. That's the thing that's wrong with this country and with people in general. No one wants to admit that something is their fault. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens with Obama. I knew from the moment that I got the breaking news 4 years ago that he had won the Senate race in Illinois that this man was someone special. That this man would be the next president of the US. And I feel like this is a guy who can inspire us to follow his lead. A leader is someone we want to follow and someone who will motivate us to take charge. Someone who will fight by our sides. That's who I want to be leader, and I am looking forward to seeing what will happen.
