thank you, barack

I must admit... I had some issues with voting for Barack Obama for a second term.

I wanted to cast my ballot for Jill Stein and Cheri Honkala but as I thought long and hard, realized I might not have the opportunity to once again choose an African American as the president of the United States during my lifetime... and so, once again I chose Barack Obama.

As I listened to Obama giving his acceptance speech, I realized this was the right choice for me. And while I have issues with the way we elect our leaders, I feel comfortable with my choice in this election cycle.
