Well I thought I would write about the election now that it is over. And so there is no misunderstanding I will start with the fact I voted for John McCain. I thought he was more qualified for President. I also disagree with Obama on his stance on the war, health care, and the spreading of the wealth. Those are all socialist views and I don’t think the United States was formed on those views. Enough about that for now.
With the election over Obama is our President and weather you voted for him or believe in him or his views he is our President and you must respect his office. I have heard a lot of negative things about both candidates and I still believe this is the wrong way to get elected but it is time for all Americans to unite and come together. I do not mean you can not express your view or even disagree with him as I said I do on several issues but he is still our President and deserves our respect.
We are not democrats, Republican, or any of the other party labels you hear so much of during an election. We are not white, black, Hispanic, or Asian, we are Americans. We need to come together as one Nation under God and work together. We can have our differences but we are still one country.
As I said I disagree with some of Obama’s policies (and there were some of McCain’s that I did not like. No one person is perfect or has all the right answers, that’s what, makes us human. As the next four years go we will see what kind of President Obama is and then we will have the opportunity to once again vote.
We face some serious challenges in the coming years and if we do not work together then this great nation may fail. I will still speak out against the policies I don’t like, (which is my right) but I will always respect the office Obama holds as President. This also goes for all elected officials. I think some times we take our freedoms for granted without thinking about the sacrifices our forefathers made for us. we truly live in the greatest nation on the earth and every American should be proud and thankful for what we have.
