Praying for Obama

Let me preface this post by saying I voted for John McCain. With that in mind I want to be behind the leader of this nation. I feel that George Bush received far too much heat while he was in the office. From the day he got in office he was being criticized for going to Camp David, the economy, his inability to say nuclear, and anything else that he did wrong. I felt sad that he was being solely blamed for the problems with the U.S. Dont get me wrong, I think there are some matters that he could have handled better, but I think he was a scapegoat more often than he should have been. After a while people were saying things like I am leaving the country, I am embarassed by America, and making negative remarks about the stupidity of Mr. Bush. Even at his lowest of lows I supported Mr. Bush b/c I think in his mind he was trying to do what was best for America.

I think Mr. Obama will be no different. I think that he will have America's best interests in mind when he is making decisions and I will support Mr. Obama the same way that I did with Mr. Bush. As with any president, the only thing that would deter my support of a president is if they are making decisions that are not in accordance with scripture. I think this could be a possibility with this president, however I will be praying for him and supporting him until such decisions are made. Even if I dont support all of Mr. Obama's decisions I would never say that I am ashamed of America or I am leaving the country. I think we are looking so hard at party lines (Republican/Democrat) and namecalling (on multiple occasions I have heard Mr. Bush called idiot) that we are losing focus of what is really important and that at the end of the day we are all Americans. Good luck to you Mr. Obama and know that this country needs you to bring us together. God Bless America.

P.S. Vote for Bryan 2012 (hehe)
