What a cold day for a parade
Posted By nikki on January 20, 2009
There was a very long parade for the President and his family and the Vice-President and his family too. I don’t mean to leave Joe Biden out of this history making event. Anyway, since the President grew up in Hawaii, there were several marching bands from Hawaii. They told in the coverage of the parade that they practiced in an ice rink to try and get used to the cold they would encounter here. I wonder if it worked?
I was so proud to see the people of the Crow Nation and 10 other Indian tribes represented too. I missed seeing the others I am ashamed to say. That’s what America is. It’s not White, Black, Yellow, and Red. It’s people of all color that are Americans PERIOD. I think that the President shouldn’t be referred to as an African-American man. He’s a MAN. If we stop referring to people by their background or heritage, sexual preference, or religion, then we will see people as simply PEOPLE!!! But what do I know? I’m just a voice of one with an opinion that may not be the same as anyone else’s.
