So far so good. A new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll reveals that:
Two out of three respondents say they’re pleased with Obama’s early appointments and three-fourths believe that the level of his involvement in making policy has been exactly right. Another two-thirds view the president-elect in a positive light — a rating that’s more favorable than the numbers Bill Clinton and George W. Bush received 1992 and 2000.
Obama’s postives are at 67% and the American public also admits that our first black president is wallking into a mess. We’ll see how long the goodwill lasts.

/ December 11, 2008I believe there are no coincidences. The fact that our first black President is walking into a mess only means great things for people of color. There will always be ignorant people, but once Obama straightens things out (and I firmly believe he will), those would not vote for him because of his race will look that much more foolish. I have gone from feeling embarrassed to be an American to prouder than ever to be an American.
