Let's Make History

Waddup y’all

I wrote on this blog a few months ago about the then candidate for the presidency this year. Well, I am back to give you all an update on where we are at. (As if you need one) The Democratic National Convention wrapped up last week in Denver with Illinois Senator Barack Obama accepting the nomination with his running mate Joe Biden. If elected, Senator Obama will be the first person of color to be the President of The United States. On Friday of last week in Dayton Ohio Senator John McCain announced that the first female governor of the state of Alaska, Sarah Palin, would be his vice presidential running mate. For only the second time, and the first by the Republican Party, a woman has been chosen as a vice presidential running mate. The first was back in 1984 when Walter Mondale chose Geraldine Ferraro. And now 28 years later history will be made.

As I stated before I will NEVER tell any one how to vote or who to vote for, just know this….if you are old enough….VOTE!!! Make your voice heard. Your vote will make history. There have been elections where people have said “this is the single most important election in recent history.” Well, this time it’s true. I listened to both candidates speak many times over the course of the last few months and both bring compelling arguments. This year’s election WILL be an important one. Both candidates have a love and desire to see this country move forward and have our own energy supply as well as a stable economy. Both are commendable men whose love for this country should not be questioned by anyone.

I challenge you to look at the 13th chapter of Romans, the 1st verse starts off “every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those which are established by God.” And then pray for the candidates and their families. God’s hand is in this election I have no doubt about that. But to be a part of that and the history will be simply amazing.
