Today was a momentous day. Though it WAS a momentous day, there were some things that, personally, I would have rather not had happen.
As former president George W. Bush was announced, many people, if not most everyone, booed him, and then proceeded to sing "na na na na, na na na na, hey hey hey, goodbye."
I know that most people don't care for Bush as a president, myself included, but it WAS a bit, if not more than a bit, disheartening to hear. Being in the age we're supposed to be in, electing an African American as president, you would think we would be able to show our last former president a bit more respect.
Overall, though, the day was very exciting, with people everywhere, and was truly a great moment in history. I look forward to someday, if I have children, telling them, as well as their children, "I was at the inauguration of the first African American President."
This is truly a moment of history to be greatly proud of.
