Tomorrow is a new dawn in the history of humanity when Senator Barack Obama becomes president elect. He will be sworn in January 20, 2009 as president. Obama’s candidacy has brought out some of the best qualities in human nature and attracted support from all the races and religions in the United States and the admiration of various nationalities of the world. We don’t believe humanity should squander this once in a lifetime opportunity so we propose that each and every one of us adopt their own Obama Resolutions –akin to New Year’s resolutions—going forward. Here are some suggestions:

1. Thou Shall Not Hate Thy Fellow Woman And Man Because He or She is of Different Hue, Religion, Race, Nationality
