The 2008 election was truly a historical one for our country. It was the first election I truly followed our competitive democracy. At first, I wanted Hilary Clinton to be elected in office. When she wasn’t nominated, I stood behind Barack Obama and was hopeful and excited by his prospects for the future of our country. When he was elected, I was surprised that he won the election with such a majority of the vote. I can’t wait to see what the next four years holds for us!
I hope our country and government can put their personal differences aside to work with the president elect in using mindful dialogue, which goes beyond an individual commitment to dialogue to embrace the notion of "thinking together" in innovative and creative ways (web lecture) to help our country out of the economic depression we are facing.
