    President-Elect Obama will inherit some very turblant issues in some very trying times - he will be tried and tested. With the present issues at hand there is definitely work to do! He will not be an "overnight wonder", however, I trust and believe in his integrity and desire to serve this country in sincere and stellar fashion. The world will be impacted by his leadership and I truly believe, he is the man for the job. This IS his SEASON and the time for CHANGE...!

    He has a tough path ahead of him. The economy looks very bleak. He will have many difficult decisions to make. I trust that he will make the best for this country.

    I didn't vote for him but I am now glad that he is going to be our leader. I think this country may break if it were under the ruling of another Rep.

    I believe in Jesus Christ, and I fear that Obama strays too far away from the things I hold to be true and dear. I am hoping and praying that he considers ALL Americans in his term in office.

    I did not vote for him although I do hope and pray he leads our country down the right path. I thought the comment he made about his eldest daughter being over weight a few years ago was out of line and I also do not like their nonchalant attitude when it comes to them going to church and being a Christian family. I feel like our country has moved in the complete opposite direction of Christianity and what our forefathers founded this country on.
