Never thought I would see it in my grandchildren’s lifetime, let alone mine. I am so overwhemingly proud and blessed. Thank you for not giving up.

Do wish you would consider Ms. Condy Rice for Sec of State again, though.

I mean, experienced, a woman, Black (outspokenly proud of you), and no need for a transition at this critical time. Think about it.

I have never in my life been more proud to be an American than I was when I watched CNN Tuesday night, and I was in the military for a while. I want to say congratulations on the election, you really do deserve it. I also wanted to say that your acceptance speech rocked! I was really moved by what you said and could relate to when you referred to Ms. Ann from Atlanta. After everything settled down I sat down and thought that my grandmother ( I am only 25) went through some of those things and it was just and added benefit that she is alive to see the first elected black president.

God Bless you, Mr. President, Obama. From the moment you entered the race for President I knew that you would be victorious. How? Because of God’s promise that the bottom rail would be the top rail and that the last would be first. They found no fault with His son Jesus and they could find no fault in you. Thank you for everything. May you reign be filled with grace and mercy. God bless your beautiful family. May God build a fence all around you. I shall pray for you daily.
