this is true Anonymous. But how many are truly voting based on that? It seems to me that there are many voting one way or the other based on race and I think it should be solely on the issues, etc.
I agree. I was fairly shocked to see interviews tonight with people who said that race did play a part in how they voted. I'm not knocking the historic significance of tonight - it is truly as American as it gets, what seemed so unlikely not so long ago has come to pass. Watching Michelle watch her husband, the now President-elect, to think of Obama's grandmother getting to see him succeed in his bid for President; to think of where this country was even 50 years ago...(and less than that) to today having Barack Obama as President elect; to think of the Obama girls growing up in the White House. All that being said - he was not my candidate, but I already have prayed for him & his family tonight. He is our President.

Their skin color doesn't change their policies and views on what's best for our country...? This is dumb.
