Today is an historic day. It's Inauguration Day and Barack Obama is officially President Barack Obama. I'm not ashamed to admit that I did not vote for him, but something I've noticed something lately and feel really encouraged by is the amount of Belmont students, like myself, who are still willing to support and pray for the President--regardless of whether or not they voted for him.

It's simple actions like THAT that give me hope for America. I have to say that I've feel so discouraged by the amount of people tearing relationships over politics, but even those people who radically opposed Obama, for now at least, seem to be aware of the fact that we are ALL Americans, regardless for whom we voted.

E Pluribus Unum
Out of Many, One.
