Barack Hussein Obama
My Thoughts on Barack Obama
In 2008, history was made when Barack Obama was elected president. This made me feel very proud to be an African American.
America has taken a big step in accepting diversity in political leadership roles. By that I mean voting for and electing our first African American president, Barack Obama. Barack Obama is an inspiration to me, because he proved that there can always be change as long as you are willing to work toward it.
I also believe, he will make every effort to find a peaceful solution to ending the war in Iraq, solving the crisis with the economy, and any other crisis that may effect America and its people in the future.
Barack Obama is an inspiration to every American - Black, White, Asian, and Hispanic.
Tyler Jerami Griffith, 12 years old
Chicago/Illinois, USA
Meine Gedanken zu Barack Obama
Im Jahr 2008 wurde Geschichte gemacht, als Barack Obama zum Präsidenten gewählt wurde. Dies machte mich sehr stolz darauf, ein Afrikanisch-Amerikaner zu sein.
Amerika hat einen großen Schritt darin getan, Verschiedenheit in der politischen Führung zu akzeptieren. Damit meine ich, für unseren ersten afrikanisch-amerikanischen Präsidenten, Barack Obama, zu stimmen und ihn zu wählen. Barack Obama ist eine Inspiration für mich, weil er bewiesen hat, dass es immer Veränderungen geben kann, so lange man gewillt ist, darauf hin zu arbeiten.
Ich glaube auch, dass er jede Anstrengung unternehmen wird, eine friedliche Lösung zu finden, um den Krieg in Irak zu beenden, die Wirtschaftskrise zu überwinden und jede andere Krise, die sich in Zukunft auf Amerika und seine Menschen auswirken mag.
Barack Obama ist eine Inspiration für alle Amerikaner - Schwarze, Weiße, Asiaten und Lateinamerikaner.

PART LXVIII
Grownupism!
1Day, When I Grow Up!
So, as usual, I wuz sittin' an' stinkin' 'bout all kindsa stuff an' wonderin' where my mind should land to git sumthin' clear one way or another!
Thinkin' 'bout all kindsa stuff at once is not very hip or as my pardnuhrs would sey an' do sey to me, it's not very productive!
I don't know, maybe 'cause they're older, they maybe know better?
At least, that's the feelin' I git, when they talk to me.
Anda lotta other people too!
Like always, if sumthin' happens in the wurl, we kids gotta always know 'bout it!
The dragon-teecher doesn't care how we know, but we'd better git the information!
OK, that means readin', talkin' an' explainin' all kindsa stuff to her an' all the class members.
There's been a lotta talk an' T.V. 'bout Barack Obama for a long time an' it's gittin' more an' more, all the time.
So now, it's election day an' nite.
Just watta lotta peeple have been waitin' for, includin' my perents an' the dragon-teecher! I tried an' stayed awake durin' the election newscast, but I gotta admit, lookin' at numbers an' ol' peeple talkin' all the time, is not so interestin'.
So, guess wut, I fell asleep!
When I woke up, my perents tol' me, "It's all over and we have a new President and his name is President-elect Barack Obama."
So, I guess all his long, hard work with peeple watchin' him all the time, finally paid off!
Maybe that's a lesson for me an' lotsa other peeple too?
Man, all this payin' attention an' stuff is makin' me sleepy again,
so, I'm jes gonna sey,
G'nite
I luv you
G'nite.

PART LXVIII
Erwachsensein!
Eines Tages, wenn ich erwachsen werde!
Also, wie üblich war ich am Sitz'n und Stink'n üba alles mögliche Zeugs und fragte mich, wo meine Gedanken land'n sollt'n, um was klar zu krieg'n, so oder anders!
Üba allen möglichen Kram auf einmal nachzudenk'n is' nich' sehr hip, oder wie meine Kumpels sag'n würd'n und mir auch sag'n, es is' nich' sehr produktiv! Ich weiß nich', vielleicht weil sie älter sind, wiss'n sie's vielleicht besser?
Jedenfalls bekomm ich dies Gefühl, wenn sie mit mir red'n.
Und 'ne Menge and'rer Leute auch!
Wie imma, wenn was in der Welt passiert, müss'n wir Kinder imma drüba Bescheid wiss'n!
Der Drachenlehrerin is' egal wie, aber wir sollt'n uns besser die Informationen beschaff'n!
OK, das bedeutet les'n, red'n und alles Mögliche erklär'n, ihr und der ganzen Klasse.
Es gab 'ne lange Zeit 'ne Menge Gespräche und Fernsehen üba Barack Obama und es wird imma mehr die ganze Zeit.
Und nun is' Wahltag und -nacht.
Genau das, worauf 'ne Menge Leute gewartet hab'n, einschließlich meine Eltern und die Drachenlehrerin!
Ich hab's vasucht und bin während der Wahlnachrichten wach geblieb'n, aber ich muss zugeb'n, Zahlen anseh'n und alte Menschen red'n die ganze Zeit, is' nich' so interessant.
Also, ratet mal, ich bin eingeschlaf'n!
Als ich aufwachte, erzählt'n meine Eltern mir: "Es ist alles vorbei und wir haben einen neuen Präsidenten und sein Name ist designierter Präsident Barack Obama."
So, ich glaub ma', seine lange, harte Arbeit unter der ständigen Beobachtung von Menschen hat sich am Ende ausgezahlt!
Vielleicht is' das 'ne Lektion für mich und auch für 'ne Menge and'rer Leute?
Mann, dieses ganze Aufpass'n und Zeugs macht mich wieder müde,
also sag ich einfach ma'
'Nacht
Hab euch lieb
'Nacht
