History in the Making


There are a few times when you know that you have lived history. Today is one of those days. We are seeing history in the making. Either Barack Obama or Sarah Palin will make history. Obama will be the next President marking the first African American to hold this office or Sarah Palin will be the first woman Vice President.

Last night I watched Obaman accept the democratic party nomination and couldn't help think that 45 years ago he wouldn't have been able to attend the same school or eat in the same restraunt with me. Today he may be the next leader of this nation.

Palin could hold the same job as other men and make less just because she is a woman. Now she may become the VP.

We are living history and one day we will be telling our grand-children about this election. Our nation will never be the same come January 20, 2009.
