[QUOTE="Andy, post: 209700, member: 5096"] I was so proud of McCain when one of his followers started to whine about, "Obama is ......." McCain put a quick stop to her rambling and said that "Obama is good guy. He just has a different view point than I do." McCain's speech last night was awesome. I mentioned it to difficult child's teacher and said I wish difficult child could have heard it. That speech was very healing and really pointed McCain's followers to reunite with the winning team because we are all Americans and are on the same team. McCain really did a great job to assure the nation that although he did not agree with the plans of the Democrats, Obama is an honorable person. He did not allow race to be an issue in the election. That in itself was a great role model for our nation. I think the current generation of parents are working hard in teaching their children to accept all people for who they are. Our parents must have instilled something into us to do this? I know my dad was very prejudice and I never could figure out why. But my grandparents on my mom's side were very much accepting of everyone. I grew up admiring my grandparents for their respect of all people and strive to be like them. I was too tired to wait up for Obama's speech so went to bed and turned on the radio hoping to hear it. I was 1/2 asleep when he gave his speech so can not remark much on it though I am sure it was also good. I do think a woman president is possible within the next half dozen elections. It has to be the right person. We are also teaching our kids that women can and are cabable of doing anything a man can do. [/QUOTE]
