I'm black myself, and I agree that its a bit premature to give Barack Obama(and any president) a holiday this early. I would like to see his work after he get sworn in office and what he will do for this country before any kind of holiday for him.
A holiday merely for a President's election? Then we should be entirely fair and have a day for every President who's ever served. Another 44 days off during the year...I'll vote for that, although I imagine it's kind of unlikely.
Too early? Officials in Hawaii have confirmed that state records conclusively show that Barack Obama is NOT George W Bush. There's reason to celebrate right there...
What has he actually done that warrants a holiday?
He's a senator with no experience.
Exactly. The same thing he's done that warrants being president.
Bupkus.
