Today was Election Day baby. Barack Obama was our very first bi-racial (black and white) President that our nation ever had, and was elected back in 2008. Today, on November 6th, 2012 he was re-elected for four more years! It's a pretty big deal. Not too many people have been happy with the job that he has done, and feel like he has taken way too long to make change happen.
Baby, you have to understand the conditions our country was in when he came into office. Bush had placed us in a war, and he had overspent much of our nation's money. Jobs were at an all time low. When Obama came in, our nation nearly went bankrupt (think of the Great Depression happening again). Slowly, things have gotten better, but lasting change takes time.
You, baby, will be nearly 4 years old when our next election happens. My hopes for you, is that Obama does a really great job over these next 4 years, and allows you to have a comfortable life.
Thank God, Mitt Romney didn't win.
