Today is Inauguration Day - the day we swear in our new President, Barack Obama. Regardless of our political persuasion, today's events are historic by any standard. As the first African-American President, Barack Obama's election is inspirational to many. We have no problem believing that a wealthy white man can become President. History has shown us that white men from humble beginnings can become President. Those two facts have allowed many to dream of becoming President of the United States, arguably the most difficult and important job on the planet. Now, our African-American children have proof positive that they, too can aspire to that, or any high calling. Perhaps one day, our little girls will see that day when a woman is sworn in as President, inspiring them to believe that, in America, all things are possible. Today is a day that can literally change lives in profound and positive ways. So, today, let us all celebrate this latest reminder of the vibrancy of our democracy and the goodness and promise of this great country and its great people.
