Can the news commentators please make up their minds?  One minute, Obama is not talking strongly enough on this issue or that issue.  The next minute he is acting like he is the president and there is only one president at a time.  What is the problem and why are you questioning his every move.  Yes, he spoke of change but you say he is not changing the people involved.  The answer to this is that he is choosing those people with the most experience and how did they get the experience but by being in this place at a different time.  Just because the faces are the same does not mean that change will not come. 

My confidence in Obama’s ability to run this country is growing on a daily basis.  The more I hear him speak the more I know he is a thoughtful, wise and sincere person.  He may not be experienced but he knows how to pull in the most experienced people for the jobs that need the most methodological attention.  I’m sorry, I just do not have any bad words to say about this man and I hope I never will.  Yesterday when I heard him speaking, he again took me on a journey of hope and inspiration as he talked about his plans directly after his swearing in ceremony. He spoke of effective communications through active listening when it comes to economic growth possibilities for each individual state, city and county.  In the spirit of the bi-partisan concept, he stated that wisdom is not the mindset of only one party but a combination of the thought process of democrats, as well as republicans. 

He addressed the issues of finding long term solutions to the problems facing American’s and the American economy, as opposed to temporary fixes. While again proposing the idea of going down the list of current programs to evaluate them individually and cutting those that are not being effective but are instead draining money from an already stressed budget.  Without giving exact details, he again spoke on the need for an economic stimulus and a solution to providing 2 ½ million jobs, overtime.   He acknowledged the fact that he felt the American people where at a point that they needed and deserved truth, in dealing with the issues we are facing. All of these things he spoke of and insisted that once in office, these things would be dealt with swiftly decisively, as well as effectively and he is assembling the right people to handle these situations in the most effective manner. Say what you will about Obama, but he is moving in the right direction and I am, so very, very proud of him as a human being, as a man and as an African American since this seems to be his biggest claim to fame right now – that he is an African American entering the White House.

And that’s the way I see it!!
