I truly cannot believe it. I know I’ve wrote it before, but an African-American man with a dangerous-sounding name is only 60 electoral votes (as of 10:45 pm ET) from becoming the President of the still mightiest country in the world. I truly wish all Americans that what many outside their country are hoping: that this will mean a push forward for your great country.
From a part of the world who still has so much to learn about Democracy, who are still shaking off the ghosts of militarism, here’s to wishing that this smile, this clear sky, this portarit, may be a reflection of what God has in store for all of you. From my heart, congratulations to all, and –barring a true fluke–, congratulations to President Elect Barack Hussein Obama, Jr.
As of this time, this is your new President, America. Enjoy!
