Barak’d the Vote

Oh that's right, America, Obama won. A black man in the "White House". Can you handle that? Well you don't have a choice, ya filthy racist!

His acceptance speech was amazing. His stoic posture and strong words were the most inspiring I have ever heard. I shed a tear and got tingles from the top of my spine to the bottom of my genitals.

My generation has never had a chance to feel this way, to experience these feelings on the political plane. What is this, hope? Pride? Excitement? All of these things! My knee-jerk reaction is to argue that the occurrences of the 9/11 tragedies came close to inspiring these feelings, but this is not so. Those were entirely different feelings. In 2001 we banded together out of fear, mistrust, hatred. We came together in defense of our nation, to protect her.


Last night we banded together in the name of an offensive strategy to rebuild our great nation. This was a positive change for our government, a change my generation has backed more than it has backed any other political movement. We never had a JFK, we’ve only had our Vietnam. It’s time for Generation Y to have our moment to rally behind a great leader. Barak Obama is that man.


We made history last night.


So suck it, bitches.
