Today is the day! Barack Obama is the 44Th president of the United States of America and he has just made history. He is the very first black president. I believe this is an important mark in history. For many years African Americans have been looked down upon in the U.S. They were never allowed to be in the government and now that has changed. Obama's family were immigrants and that is also significant. His father worked as a janitor for the longest time and they were definitely not a wealthy family.
I just thought that this day is quite significant to the history of the United States and the rest of the world.
