Braves' legend, and former home run king, Hank Aaron was thrilled to see Barack Obama elected as American's next president last week. "He's the 44th president, and that was my uniform number, by the way," said Aaron. "I'm still collecting newspapers, different articles, all of those things over this, and I'm still on cloud nine," said Aaron of the nation's first African-American president. "I've been telling people that we may not have gotten our 40 acres and a mule, but we got 50 states," Aaron said. "It was a happy scene for me ? and for a lot of black people, given what we?ve been through in this country, and then to have this history."
