Marie Younkin-Waldman: A vote for love

01:00 AM EST on Thursday, November 27, 2008

The American people have shown their true color by electing Barack Obama president. It is the color of caring for our country and for the world. It is the color of hope for a new future. It is the color of honesty and courage. It is the color of acceptance and tolerance. It is the color of what is important in life. It is the color of love. May God bless and keep Mr. Obama and his family safe.

MARIE YOUNKIN-WALDMAN
