Agree. What an exciting day today was!

Just a taste of how his presidency will resonate:

I have a nightmare... that one day... black people will realise that his policies will differ in no meaningful way from those of any former or future US president.

I have a nightmare... that one day... black people in the US will realise that they are just as broke, oppressed and discriminated against as they were on 20th January 2009.

I have nightmare... that one day... black people will discover and that the only real change in their life is a change of president: from an idiot to a photogenic and brilliant orator - because that's how he was trained to deliver speeches and that's why he was selected.

Mine eyes have seen the coming of the angry media backlash over the failing economy and the continued disastrous foreign policy.

I wish someone - perhaps Obama - would DEFINE 'Hope' and 'Change'.
Hope for what? Hasn't anyone noticed that Obama hasn't been at all specific?

It's just a buzz word, my friend.

I read a very interesting article about 'hypnotic' orators - Hitler was one - how to work an audience up into a frenzy... speech patterns... timing and facial expressions on certain words and phrases...

Yuri, can you tell me what Hope is?

Yawwwwn!

Every country not subscribing to Anarchy needs a Government. The Citizens of the USA has chosen their Government and have subscribed in varying degree to whatever slogans they want to use!
It is as simple as that.

You know that is it. After he won I was talking to a friend how abstract this man is that he cannot be held accountable for anything yet for everything. Change. We need Change. Everybody is free to put their meaning in his words and presto.

Obama, man after my own words

So what it goes back to my original argument about The Citizens of the USA choosing a New Government, with a New Slogan and subscribing to it in a lesser or greater degree.
What the USA does and does not do does affect the world, you may not have noticed a slight problem with the Worlds economy because the Citizens of the Country that consumes 2/3 of the Worlds total output in goods and Services have been reduced to basically <span style="font-family: 'Arial Black'">Hunting and Gathering</span>!

You must admit that he is a politician like any other and have manipulated the people to voting for him, including using his races and exploiting hopelessness
