A conversation on faith & culture for creatives, leaders & influencers
Go to http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/ to read some interesting facts. Yes, fellow bloggers and blog readers…this is pretty cool.
On the Whitehouse website you can see Barack Obama already up with his official portrait.
I am excited about a new president and the historical nature of how today will represent hope in a post-racial America. In plain English that means we just elected our first black president which is a big deal. Also, I like that our new president can actually put a few words together. No offense to W, but Obama is a rarely gifted communicator.
What are people doing to celebrate? Some will buy cool memorabilia like this action figure to celebrate. I know what I am doing. I intend to celebrate the inauguration live and come in a bit late to the office to do so. CNN will be my choice because I like Anderson Cooper and their HD.
How are you viewing this historical event? Doing it TV, online, TIVO, or smart phone?
This famous 2008 Youtube “Obama Is Going to Pay For My Gas And Mortgage” represents the high expectations Obama has to live up to. Biden seems to think that its not domestic, but international issues that bring high expectations for Obama.
“You asked me earlier if I am worried about the exceedingly high expectations that people have for President Barack Obama,” Biden told CNN’s Larry King in advance excerpts of his interview with the talk-show host.
“I said domestically I wasn’t so worried about that but internationally I am,” Biden said, adding that foreign hopes for the incoming administration were overwhelming.
Regardless of your political views, its is obvious expectations by some of Obama are strataspheric and perhaps a challenge in and of themselves. So, I think we should pray for our new leader to succeed. (1 Timothy 2:1-2). Pray.
“We never hide from history, we make history…” said Senator John McCain in response to Obama’s historic win last night. This transformational figure represents many good things about us Americans. I pray for our new leader, his family and those around him.
