History Has Been Made

It is November the 5Th, 2008, the first day of a brave new world. Last night we the people voted to put an African American politician into the office of President of the United States.
Given the history of prejudice and hate that has been and still is part of the fabric of this country, this is truly extraordinary. One can truly say that it marks a turning point that it is hopefully the beginning of a new chapter in the way we see each other. Not as black, white, red,or brown; but simply as human beans.
What you stand for not what you are, that is all that should matter. One's beliefs not one's race or culture. That is what should matter.
Now is the time to realize that we are all Americans and we must work together to heal the ells of this great nation of ours.
We are each our brothers keeper and if we are going to turn things around we must look past what he is, see who he is, and work together put things right.
