This Has to Give you Hope

Anyone who has been reading this blog for very long knows that Barack Obama was not my choice for president even though I did vote for him in the end. I believed from the get go that Hillary Clinton was the best person to lead our country out of this mess. I still believe she was a better choice based on what she brings in experience and ability but I have to say as I watch the days leading up to this inauguration, I get it. I still think it is more hooey than reality, he does not have the experience to lead this country but he seems to have something else and people are so desperately clinging to their belief that he can give them what they need. I don't think he can but then again maybe he already did. Maybe all the people need is to believe that he can and that is enough.
Watching this video and the Hope on the face of Bono whom I truly adore, then the look on Obama's face, I wonder if Obama truly gets it, if he understands what the people expect of him and if he feels that he can in any way give it to them or if he is just terrified.
