Historic Election, Part Two

Congratulations to Barack Obama, the 44th President of the United States. I will not be posting any biographical information regarding President-Elect Obama here, as I am sure one is more than able to find information using the internet, a library, and the media, i.e. newspapers, radio, etc. However, I do wish him the best of luck and offer my hopes that he will be able to correct the economic depression and end US dependence on foreign oil, or any oil whatsoever.

I also hope that his two daughters will be able to continue typical, uninterrupted lives despite their father's Presidency. They deserve to continue their lives as their father serves the public.
Again, best wishes to the next First Family, and Joe Biden and his family.

My only fervent wish, however, is to see California's Proposition 8 overturned for its unconstitutionality by the Supreme Court. Whether or not you agree with gay marriage, equality for all was one of the basic principles the United States was based on. Everyone deserves the same treatment.

A Historic Election

With McCain's announcement of his Vice President choice, the 'equality' of the 2008 American elections have been restored. No matter who wins, this will be a historic election: the oldest candidate ever, the first woman vice president, the first non-white president. However, there will still not have been a non-white, non-male candidate. We say that we are more equal and free, but it has been jokingly said that no matter who wins, they'll get shot. What type of country is this, that this fact is a joke, worse, an accepted reality? When will we see through this all, and move to a truly equal state?

Everyone supposedly has equal rights, but how many little girls dreaming of being president have had their dreams crushed simply for their sex?
