Welcome President Obama!

Hooorray Massachusetts!
We eliminated greyhound racing, decriminalized weed, and kept income tax. Good times, good times.
I woke up at 6 am this morning and could not fall back asleep because I am sooo excited about President Obama. I feel inspired, and proud and happy and optimistic about what our future as a country for the first time in 8 years.

Happy days

Never seen so much enthusiam and excitement about politics before

Obama was having partys, Mccain was having early bird specials

 

Shit you will be eligible most likely, you should hop on that so you don't rely on your sister to find shit for you, that is if they start opening care dispensaries. Plus the pot is beyond comparison to what you posted getting from your sister. Score 1 for Michigan.

 

It's been a long 8 years...

 

I remember having a bad feeling about bush back in 2000 when I was in 10th grade when he first got elected.

 

hooray for ma!everything i voted for pretty much appened.

 

Obama doesn't get sworn in until January 20 @ noon.

 

George W - Forgotten, but not gone.

African Americans need to have previously lived in Africa to be African American?? I was under the impression that the word african american simply means that your ancestors were from africa. But you have a point there, because every "American" has ancestors from all over the world. But we dont call ourselves "Italian American" or w/e. And the reason people like Obama isnt because he's black.(some like him just because hes black, but not enough to make him the winner) He represents change, and I believe our country needs a new perspective..If he was white, Id think the exact same way about him. Plenty of white people voted for Obama..thats why he won. Judge not on the color of ones skin but on the content of ones character. The candidates ethnicity shouldn't mean anything. I know that blacks are now proud to have a black president, and rightly so. But I refuse to believe that he was elected simply because of the color of his skin. Plus..under Obama we are more likely to see states decriminalize weed imo
He MAY be all talk, but he's more believable than McCaine..i think
