I mean, I guess it was "cool" for some people to have a "black" president (though he's half-white) but I mean it's been a while now. Let's get over it now. I think people very focusing only on THAT and weren't focusing on his goals for the country. But that's not the point of this thread, I think? Really, in a way I want to see the inauguration, but I think I would just get pissed off, and since I don't watch the news, I don't know where I could watch it from anyway. |
Well my dads 53, he's from LA and when he was in school it was segregated, and that was just in the 60's, he was also in school when they were integrated too ^_^ so it was historic for him because he lived through, the unfair things in life, however my mom didnt she grew up in the North, its the fact that this has happened and its big to people like my family and a lot of others. Im glad this day has came where we can look past color...well alot can. :)

If you see the speech, he says "60 years ago, my father wouldn't have been served food in a Washington DC restaurant, and now his son has been asked to serve as the country's president." The point is not the color of his skin, but the PROGRESS this country has made. I think it's great that you don't think it's a big deal that he is black. THAT is progress, too. But for your parents and grandparents it is a HUGE deal. |

I watched what they showed in school and that was about it. I could care less about who the president is...as long as we don't go boom I'll be fine XD Quote:
