President Elect Obama

Many of my political opinions differ from President Elect Obama, but I can't help but be proud of our country this night. 4 decades after the civil rights act a black man is elected to the highest office in the land. Amazing.

I have many close Black American friends and tonight I celebrate with you a cultural victory for our country. I trust President Obama will live up to his political rhetoric of bridging the aisle and establishing change together with those of us with more conservative views and those who hold liberal views.

Culturally we have bridged a huge milestone. For that America let's celebrate. Politically let's pray that conservative values and policies are not lost altogether during the next four years.
