I think this is an amazing step for American culture electing Barack to the white house.

I think he seems like a genuine, honest, and extremely passionate man who can really do some good and I have never been so happy and so hopeful for the future of our country as I have right now with Obama as president.

I wish him well, too. I have to be truthful by saying that I'm not nearly as optimistic, though. I am an Independent, and it remains to be see what will happen. No doubt that 2008 was historical, and it's a big step for the country. Now, I want to see what can be done. I'm afraid I can't say much more, then I'd be causing some fireworks. It's not a subject that everyone's comfortable with.

Cass: Whooooo!! That's great news.
