Millions waited and watched and reacted as history was made. Barack Obama was elected the 44th President of the United States of America. And Evan Weppler decided to save a bit of history in his inbox.
I watched the coverage online, read news stories, and spent a good deal of time on Facebook (nothing new, huh?). But this time, it wasn’t just to like my friend’s pictures of food and babies and comment on viral videos. I saw my friends split into various camps as the day went on. Some announced plans to move if/when Obama was elected (none of them did). Some shouted for joy while others shouted at the heavens. Some danced, while others wept. Words and phrases were thrown around like confetti and firebombs: Neo-Marxist, “God Save Us,” hope, black man, excited, praying, leadership, GOBAMA!, secede, “mourn the death of our country,” history, success, why?
That night, I decided to save a little piece of history by copying all these Facebook statuses in my News Feed into an email to my inbox. And now, almost 7 years later, we can take a glimpse of how a group of primarily college students (with some older and younger people) from Texas (with some out of state and out of the country) with a variety of political and religious beliefs reacted to the election of Barack Obama.
(All the names below have been changed and replaced with fake names generated from www.behindthename.com/random/, random-name-generator.info/, and www.fakenamegenerator.com/ and some personal oversight [weeding out strange names, keeping some genders the same, etc.] I tried to use a variety of names from difference cultures so as to not to stereotype either side. Oh, and I’m listed in a couple comments below. Guess who?)
