I’m happy that Obama has earned the people’s vote to be our next President. I beleive he will bring about a change that this country needs. He already has brought about a new world wide image of the United States – seeing the reactions in Australia, Nigeria, and everywhere from Tuesday night was amazing.
I commented the other day that there was little made in the days prior to the election about race and its impact of the vote. Since the election, it is the foremost story out there. And I think that is good! The media exercised constraint appropriately prior to the election, and is now equally appropriately celebrating its significance. I appluad our news agencies for this!
I am also happy to see how active President-elect Obama is already. If he were able, I beleive he would be signing bills into law today. As he names his transition team and staff, the coming days are really shaping the next four years for all of us.
