In this article by Thomas Friedman, he speaks about how he is joyful our nation has elected a black man as president in which he has a lot of trust and respect for. Friedman is happy that American citizens were able to overcome the whole idea of our president being black, and do what was best for our nation. We need change and Barack Obama has promised to deliver. This gives hope to many people, people who have dreams that don't seem like they can be accomplished. Now that America has a black president, many people think now anything is possible. It brings hope to people, especially African Americans. Hopefully Obama will be able to bring everybody together as a whole and fix what our nation is going through, with our economy struggling so greatly. Obama has a lot of pressure on him as of right now, and only time will tell if he was the best elect for the president of the United States.
