100 Business Days Out: Day 41 - History

More about today tomorrow, but I thought it worth stopping and marking that this day, my 41st day out was the same day that history was made with Barack Obama winning the Democratic Party nomination for the President of the United States. Whether or not you agree with him and his policies, we have done something extraordinary by electing an African American to be one of two people who will compete for the highest office of the land. In the scheme of history it was not that long ago that "we the people" did not include african americans and today I believe we can all be proud of our country, our government, our democracy for allowing that regardless of all of our woes and problems, it holds itself true that anyone who so desires has the opportunity to become the President of the United States. It is a great and wonderful country we live in.
