Hope

Sad but true fact: I don’t vote often. Reason being, I don’t like to vote on things I don’t know enough about. And I usually don’t know enough about a candidate or issue because A. I have little faith in any candidate and B. Things rarely change. So when Obama came around and gave America a new energy, I began to get interested. I did research and I campaigned for Obama. I voted for Obama. I do not regret that for one second. Obama is not perfect, and it is unfortunate that people expect him to be. Change that comes quickly, doesn’t last. Look at people who diet. Whenever you lose weight too rapidly, you always gain it back and with a vengeance. I still have faith and hope in America and in Obama. He is not a magician and he is not God. He is a human being trying to do something better for all of us. We are all part of the problem and we all have a chance to be a part of the solution.
