there has never been anything false about hope

Dear Mister Obama,
Congratulations. Today you embark on a journey down a path, one that is sure to be fraught with obstacles and setbacks, but one which we truly believe you can navigate successfully. The valley of trials yawning before you must seem deep, dark and arduous, but since you first started your campaign for the presidency, you’ve been our beacon; our light in the distance, our dream for a different future than the one being laid out for us by years of destructive behavior. It is my hope that the American people can now offer you the same feeling of solace that you’ve given to us, by each doing our part to better our country. The fate of this nation does not rest on your shoulders alone, nor should it. It is time for every American to take responsibility and to do what is right. We are in our current position because of greed, selfishness, apathy, and ignorance and this type of behavior cannot continue. I fully believe we are getting out of this mess together, as one nation, or not at all. You have inspired us to change, and I believe that you will guide us into prosperity. Our light is no longer twinkling in the distance; it is shining brightly from Washington today. I am proud of my country, and of you and Michelle, and your lovely daughters.
Congratulations again, Mister Obama.
- Nikki
