You are right that the burden is on Obama to prove his skeptics wrong. This come with the job. I personally don't agree with some his socialistic ideals, but as you know how old saying goes "Actions speak louder than words." So, I can't wait to see what Obama going to do if he's going becomes the next president. Until then, I'll take all the words from politicians with a grain of salt, especially Obama.

To be honest, as a minority, I would love to see another minority in these kind of positions and be successful. However, Obama really scares me. He is way too suave. I mean, sometimes I wish I could be somewhat like him, but not as a politician.
