The Rubber Meets the Road

Many have placed their hope on now President Barack H. Obama. I say don't. Give his administration space to make error, to be human, to earn the stature, seemingly already hoisted upon him, of being an outstanding president.

It still remains to be seen how effective he will be. How will he impact how people are treated for mental illness, on soldiers coming home with post-traumatic stress disorder, how we can work together to prevent suicide, etc. It still remains to be seen the support what support will be granted to military families, etc.

While initial steps have been positive, as President Obama said, the price of citizenship is how we hold his administration accountable for their actions.

Let us let them act.

Inaugurally yours,

The Afterw@rd
