It has a taste of bravery mixed with full confidence. There is nothing Pollyanna regarding this. I will possibly not support everything he says, but he's our president, and then for me, he creates trust. That can do more for just a nation than any amount of backroom deals. Hope gives us energy, and energy sustains us through trying times. Boy, we've had them. I'm from West Texas, and I did not vote for Bush. When McCain ran against Obama, I was a citizen of Arizona, but I gave audacious hope a chance. The fight for progress and laying the foundations of prosperity will not be over. I have seen the quips of those that don't believe Obama is capable of it. But step back a moment. Would anyone have most of us fail only to tarnish the star of an incumbent for whom they didn't vote? Keeping our priorities straight, let's work together with our president and build our future. Barack Obama’s book, “The Audacity of Hope,” features a catchy title.
