 * United States History 2005-2010**

The first decade of the 21st century marks a dramatic transition from a bustling nation of the computer revolution to a nation integrated with the digital world dealing with the political and economic baggage of its past. A desire to steer away from the traditional conservative politics of Reagan and Bush led to the election of Barack Obama, a liberal and the first African-American President. He now faces the increasing debt given to us by Reagan as well as the military problems in the Middle East given to us by Bush. Meanwhile, the nation endures hardship after hardship, looking forward to a brighter future.
