Ready or not, here he comes. The 44 th President of the United States. He came from a racially mixed- single family home, put himself through college and law school, and went from no name lawyer to President in 13 years. You gotta' give him props!
Update: My brother added an awesome comment that I wanted to share:
"IT IS PRETTY COOL THAT OUR NATION ELECTED IT'S FIRST AFRICAN AMERICAN PRESIDENT. JUST THINK, ABOUT 45 YEARS AGO OUR NATION WAS PUTTING BLACKS AT THE BACK OF THE BUS, HANGED, BEATEN BY COPS AND OTHERS BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO BE LIKE THE REST OF AMERICANS. NOW WE HAVE ELCTED A BLACK MAN TO BE OUR PRESIDENT. LAST NIGHT I KEPT THINKING TO MYSELF "ONLY IN AMERICA!"
