VAnna, I am happy that you are enthusiastic about your President. Yes, he is mine too, despite my not voting for him. I am not as enthusiastic, because I am 43 and I do remember the Clinton years...and guess what?did suck! You have to remember, my business failed during the Clinton years and I have his tax increases to thank for it (not entirely Clinton's fault...Pop had a lot to do with the failure, too). Hey, perhaps Obama can do what is needed to get things rolling. He has a Democrat controlled Congress to work with, which makes a huge difference for a President (when you have a Congress that will work with you...which Bush did not have). I have to give Obama the chance, because there is nothing I can do to change what has happened. I don't have the hope you do, and I don't want to bring you down from yours. Let us both hope things get better, for everyone.
