how can anyone be numb to the fact that WE now have an african american president? and i don't care what % black he is, that does not play in to this scenario at all for me. he is real. is it not in front of your face obvious that our country participated in an historical election & we made history last night? to me that is incredible. it does give me hope that our country , and perhaps world can change for the better under his leadership.

it was emotional & i cried a few tears.... it was a incredible thing we did last night, how can anyone not be proud & feel the emotion of it?
