Inauguration Day, 2009


It is the beginning of a new era. Today we will inaugurate a new leader, a fresh-faced, dark skinned young man with lofty ideals and a strange name. The color of his skin and his foreign sounding name should be irrelevant but they are not. He may be the bridge to uniting our country and regaining the world's respect but we mustn't expect him to perform miracles. Afterall, he is a human being like the rest of us. The DH believes that God chooses our leaders. If that is true, our new president will have Divine guidance. He'll need prayers from each and every one of us, as he has just four short years to bring peace to the Middle East, end the war in Iraq, jump start our lagging economy and stop government corruption! Godspeed, Barack Obama. You'll need all the help you can get.
