Barack Obama – Change for America, for the World, for All of Us – The Audacity of Hope On November 4, 2008, Barack Obama defeated John McCain and became the first African American to be elected President of the United States. In his victory speech, delivered before a crowd of hundreds of thousands of his supporters in Grant Park in Chicago, Illonois, Obama proclaimed that “change has come to America.” Born in Hawaii, Obama will be the first U.S. President born outside the contiguous United States. He also will be fifth youngest President at the date of accession and the second since Lincoln whose primary political base is Illinois. This portrait illustrates and epitomizes the audacity of hope. President Obama was sworn in as the 44th President of the United States of America on January 20, 2009. Selected information courtesy of Wikipedia.

A Taunton, Massachusetts woman killed herself when she learned that the bank was going to foreclose her home loan. She left a note to her family to use her life insurance to pay off their loan. This happened in July 2008. As the housing mortgage crisis worsens and more people lose their jobs, I fear stories like this may become all too frequent on the evening news.

Result of Bush’s economic policy. Hunger In America From Science News, October 28, 2005 Hunger In America Rises By 43 Percent Over Last 5 Years The USDA report, Household Food Security in the United States, 2004, says that 38.2 million Americans live in households that suffer directly from hunger and food insecurity, including nearly 14 million children. That figure is up from 31 million Americans in 1999. Dr. J. Larry Brown, an authority on hunger, stated the following: “With this astonishing level of food deprivation in America,” Brown concluded, “we need President Bush to step up to the plate. If he now asks Congress to cut federal food programs, hunger will increase even further. We need the moral leadership to stem this crisis.” Full Text of the Article Hunger In America 2007 Statistics LIMITED EDITION PRINTS CLICK HERE
