Tomorrow is Inauguration day. The era of Bush ends and Obama will be sworn in as the first African American President. Will it be historic. Yes. Will it be a new path for the US? Maybe. Either way the day will start and end as it always does. The sun won't shine any brighter, the temperature won't become any warmer, and the economic crisis won't disappear.
Seems that the more Obama does the more he seems to be gravitating towards a middle ground in the political spectrum. Funny how spectrum rhymes with another word that could be used when referring to politics. I didn't vote for Obama, big surprise there, but I genuinely hope he leads the country in a positive direction. Even if I didn't vote for him, he's still our President. I hope God gives him wisdom and courage to follow a path that keeps our country safe, prosperous and healthy. I noticed that as he became more informed of all the material he gets to see as President Elect he became more centrist in his decisions and appointments. I think that says something about the decisions Bush made while President. It seems that the more he was let in on the Presidential Daily Briefing information he started to change his approach to certain situations. He backed off his raise taxes on the wealthy promise. He backed off his withdraw troops from Iraq promise. I hope he continues to lead from the center rather than the liberal left. If he does he has the opportunity for a second term and quite possibly be able to draw people from both sides of politics. Of course, tomorrow is a new day. It's also the day he takes the reins on this country of ours and I hope he doesn't pull hard to the left once he has the Office of the President given to him.
