Congrats to Obama

It has finally happened the first official African-American presidential nominee has been elected. This is a great historical event that has happened in our country's history,but as great as it is I wasn't always for Barrack Obama..my first choice was for Hilary Clinton. I think since Bill Clinton was in office back in the '90s Ive always wanted to have the Clinton's back in office..I guess because they did so well with the economy(they actually managed to balance our country's budget) and me and other people have always said that if we had the chance to elect Bill for a third term we would have, so when Hilary decided to run for office I thought it would be the next best thing to having her husband in office. Not only has obama made great strides in our country's history but Hilary has also broken through many barriers by being the first women to be a serious running mate in an election. Now that the primary election is over and were going into the general election this is the time where we really do have to look at the issues and not just race or gender. I think this is the most important election in our country's modern history. There is a lot at stake in this election so I hope everyone looks at each candidates political platform on all the issues that we face. I just don't know what ill do if McCain gets in office because it seems he's oblivious to the nature of the economy..he thinks everything is going good -how can you can u say the economy is good right now. It just shows me how bad of a president he would be in my opinion. This election will be very interesting to watch and I hope people make the right choice for the future of our country.
