YOU'RE A GOOD MAN, MR. PRESIDENT

This is a great country isn't it. I mean just look where we are now. For the first February in our country's history that we are celebrating Black Heritage, President's Day, and a Black Family is occupying the White House, all at the same time. This was unthinkable just ten years ago. In fact for most of us, it was unthinkable right up to the day it happened.



So now all of the (black) African-Americans in this country can be proud. They can be happy that the playing field is now completely level and all of their troubles are over. The White people in America have fully accepted the fact that there is a Black man in the Oval Office. They too are proud of this accomplishment. The Obama family has now spent a full year as the first family of the United States of America.



DON'T YOU JUST LOVE OUR PRESIDENT!

We're all one big happy family. White America is beaming with joy because a Black man has come up through the ranks.

After all, who wouldn't be proud to be represented by a gentleman with the credentials of Barack Obama?

He was educated in the American school system and heroically scaled the great peaks of the institutions of higher learning. He has distinguished himself immeasurably by spending his early (post college) years serving the poor and underserved masses in the community. He then moved on serve at a different level through the legislative body of the state of Illinois. He worked long hours as a state legislator and sought to bring about unity and civility between opposing political parties, while crafting bold and insightful measures to meet the needs of his constituents. In order to do more for his country, he set his sights on the White House, where he could lead the greatest country to meet it's greatest challenges. This conquest was achieved because Mr. Obama put together a most superb coalition of workers and orchestrated a dynamic campaign that met and overcame the fiercest challenges and fiery darts imagineable. Oh, and by the way, he met (in college) and later married one of the smartest, intelligent, intellectual, talented, graceful, and beautiful women in the world. They are the parents now of 2 young ladies who seem destined to follow in the President and first lady's footsteps and possibly exceed them. It's no wonder that White America loves this man so and want nothing but the greatest success for him and his family.

And just for good measure, let me point out why the Religious Right loves him too, perhaps even more than the rest of us.



For the first time in recent history, we have a leader who leads by example. I mean, he tries to find kind words whenever he speaks about any of those in opposition to him, whether they are on the campaign trail or otherwise.

"He is long suffering and kind; He does not brag on or promote himself, but others instead; He is not puffed up; He does not behave himself unseemly and is not easily provoked; He does not rejoice in confusion, but rather in truth; He believes, hopes, endures troubles, and holds on even when it seems all hope is gone.

WHO WOULDN' LOVE A PRESIDENT LIKE THAT?
