inauguration day

Well folks it happened Americas first black president was sworn into office today. And while i was a McCain supporter, I did watch history in the making. And i will admit, i was fascinated by what i was watching. But this does not mean that i have become part of the Obama camp. I am nervous as to what changes this man will bring about. If the changes he is promising do happen then great and i will be the first to admit that i was wrong. But i am worried that the changes he does make will not be for the good of America. As a college student, i am looking to the future and praying that i have a job when i graduate. I am going into the health professions field and if there is not a job for me when i get out of school, that means the United States of America is in the dumps. My friend(who is going to be a nurse) and i were talking about it today and we joked that if we graduate and there are not health related jobs, then we are going to move to Canada. Only i honsestly can say that, at least on my part, i was being semi-serious. But going back to what i said early, if Obama does create the change that he is promising then great because America could use a change. I am only doubtful that it will. And as a disclaimer I would like to point out that i am not a racist and i am not saying all of this because i hate Obama because he is black. Although i know that some people will accuse me of this but i feel that is because they don't want to hear what i am saying. People are too ready to believe in a miracle and i am just erring on the side of cautious. Doubt, in small amounts, is healthy. All in all, i want to believe in the change, i just can't until it happens.
