I am a Canadian who has been exposed to this American Presidential campaign through all outlets of the media, especially on The View. I made a point of watching the hot topics on the day after the election mostly to see how Elisabeth would respond. As her candidate of choice, she also chose to embrass the change that your country is in dire need of. But the most disheartening point of the entire show was found in Sherri. I shared smiles and an overwhelming sense of joy when the show started and I saw Whoopi and Sherri's smiles and I thought "Good for you". I shared tears with Sherri when she tearfully described telling her son how he will not be limited as and African American and that he can do anything. This is the change your country needed, like Barbara expressed, Obama's win and speech reminded her of Martin Luther King's "I have a dream". The shame and disbelief came when Sherri proceeded to describe her experience in the voting booth as A FIRST TIME VOTER???? WHAT!!!!. You just sat there and poured your heart out about how things can now change for you and your son and you never have ever casted a vote in a Presidential election? You listed the names of Africans Americans who DIED just to be able to be counted in a vote and to allow you to be counted in a vote and YOU HAVE NEVER VOTED? Woman struggled for years to be seen as equal and to have their voices heard through a vote and YOU HAVE NEVER VOTED. My question is how are you going to be and agent of change when you can't even bring yourself to participate in the fight? You allow others to carry the torch and when you're ready you light your little candle from it and join the parade, when all the blood, sweat and tears have really been shed by others. Don't ride the wave of change when you have the power to create the ripple that becomes the wave. My first comment is Congratulations to the Obama’s and to the American people for choosing change.

I'm glad she came on The View before things got so ugly with Elisabeth attacking Sen. Obama's character every chance she gets. I just love Michelle Obama!
