In President Barack Obama, Americans have a charismatic leader with a good and honest heart. President Obama's years of public service are based around his unwavering belief in the ability to unite people around a politics of purpose. His story is the American story, values from the heartland, a middle-class upbringing in a strong family, hard work and education as the means of getting ahead, and the conviction that a life so blessed should be lived in service to others.
He is the first African-American to be elected President, thereby electrifying our nation with joy and energy.
In just the short time he has been in office, he has accomplished a lot in such a short period of time. He is a man of his word! President Obama is the 1st African-American President, and he is proving to every citizen that African-Americans are equal to every other man in every way. President Obama is a shining light.
