Well, I got the coins. I wanted something to commemorate the historic event, not so much that he has done anything, but it is an accomplishment for
the race just to get him in. They are pretty nice too. Yeah the media is blowing up the 1st black president idea, but we should be proud and support
him not start knocking it off the break before he even get started. This is why I had said Obama being in office is not going to make but so much of
a difference, Things will not really change until the people change. Stop viewing everything so negatively and try to be as positive as possible about
what could happen if we all go in supporting this man instead of sitting back watching waiting for something to go wrong just to then claim we knew it
was gonna happen and blame it on the white man. The crab syndrome is old and tired, the negative prophet black preson is old and tired! If you knew it
was gonna happen why didn't you make more of an effort to try to stop it? And why you trying to pull back somebody who you could just as easily work
your way up to? Yes he has a coin, yes they are kind of jumping the gun since he has not actually done anything in office yet, but it's not about
that. If you guys are being this critically of him before he steps foot in the white house I hate to see what you do when he actually gets in there.
hope he never sneezes, gets a cold or sleeps with his eyes blinking too fast cause you will be on here criticizing that too.l How about we all jsut
enjoy the moment, and work on us? We know companies gonna commercialize him it's too big not to jump on the band wagon and make some money, but that
doesn't give reason to start speculating him.
