Past and Present Presidents
Barack Obama is now President of the United States of America. I pray that God will guide him and that he will prove to be as great a leader as a lot of people think he is capable of being. I didn’t vote for the man but I think it is very important that our nation rally behind our elected officials, whether you agree with them or not. Our pledge of allegiance calls for unity and I think it is something that our nation needs to adhere to.
One Nation United. That’s what I pray for. I also pray that our new president is courageous enough to make the tough decisions. President Bush received a bad rap in the last few years of his presidency and I think that was uncalled for. Despite your personal opinions about President Bush and the war you do have to give the man credit for keeping our country safe; not once since 9/11 has our country been attacked on American soil, for that I admire President Bush and I’m glad to call him my president.
I’m all for change, as long as the change is in the right direction.
Thank you President Bush for your service, and President Obama may God be with you.
