The American Spirit: The inguraution of Barack Obama

In fourteen short hours Barack Obama will be sworn in as the new President of United States. Being in Fairfax, VA, so close to DC, I do not plan on attending the inauguration festivities because I despise crowds. However, I am very excited about the regime change taking place in the US. I am one of those hopeful optimist that believe that beginning tomorrow, America will get a fresh start. And though we face enormous crises from the economy to social security, to health care, and to the military, the American spirit thrives under pressure and strives to conquer problems. Whether it's Lexington & Concord, Pearl Harbor, or September 11, the American spirit is unconquerable, and right now, with the coming of new administration the American spirit is soaring. Hopefully President Obama can take the enthusiasm and goodwill behind him, and make America the respectful and proud nation that it was, is, and ever shall be.
