Thank You Barack Obama by Jamie Lee Curtis
Thank you Barack Obama.

Thank you for four years ago making me say out-loud, "Why can't he be our candidate?"

Thank you for blowing away the ether of complacency.

Thank you for beating that maver-"ICK" and his running date.

Thank you for being patient with this insane process we call democracy.

Thank you for your ambition and your drive, your mind and your gravitas.

Thank you for recognizing the needle and the damage done. The needle -- our addiction to more, better, faster, greasier, dirtier, celebrity lifestyles and prescription poisons and the damage done -- the Economic Crisis, the Health Care debacle, the State of Education. This is AMERICA. Health and Education should be #1.

Thank you for understanding World History, Geography, countries and cultures, religions, customs and America's tarnished reputation in those very countries.

Thank you for voting against the war and for continuing to voice that opposition.

Thank you for your brilliant campaign and campaign managers and your staff.

Thank you for choosing Joe Biden.

Thank you for leading and inspiring me.

3. I thank everyone who voted for him
I thank everyone who didn't give into fear and hate mongering.
I thank the people of this country for proving my faith in them.

While the fact that Obama is AA cannot be ignored, I didn't really care about that. What I needed, what this country needed, was a referendum on these past 8 yrs and we got it.

I could not be more happy, more thrilled.
I am also so happy the election is over. I am suffering from election fatigue. This election cycle was too long. Some rules need to be instituted so it doesn't drag on this long.


Thank you to the Obama team.
Thank you to the 51% of people who voted for Obama.
