Obama, 44th President(Elect)

I can't believe noone else thought about posting something about this in world news.
What are your thoughts? Any congratulations?Dissapointed?

There are a lot of posts in the debates section about Obama and McCain. I'm personally glad that he won, because I was afraid that McCain would've been another George Bush. My big thing is that I hope he can keep his promises and live up to the hype that the media (not Obama himself) is touting.

Yeah, now the white house has turned into black house... ;D

YES, OBAMA, HOPE, CHANGE

racist much? i personally think the gain in credibility the US will have with most of europe and parts of the middle east will be more than enough to warrant decent approval ratings, plus despite the media hype which not many people could live up too i think overall he will be a very good president.

hopefully he makes the right choices no matter how bad that choice is.one instance is the u.s. auto industry. if by the end of this year the car industry has not found a way to be innovative, they should not be aided. it's a good choice but it's harsh at the same time.

YESS!!!
OBAMA IS THE BEST!!!
Things go change now!!!

The inaugural ceremony concluded without any hitches (yet I was expecting the chopper that took Bush back to Texas would explode minutes upon take off :P ), and President Obama said alot of good things in his Inaugural Speech. So, what do you think guys, will things really change for the better?

Yes, but not immediately.

One of the things he mentioned that sounded good to me was the thrust to further Science not for warfare or for Security &/or defensive purposes but for the betterment of living, though the use of Wind turbine & Solar energy to power our needs seemed to be old news. The not so immediate withdrawal of U.S. forces on places like Iraq was good too.

there is one immediate change! a black guy instead of a white guy as president.

I know this isn't the debate section, but I want to expand on your post. So, could this mean that in the future there could also be a Native American President, an Asian-American President, an Hispanic-American President, etcetera who could be elected next? Or heaven forbid, could this just all be a political gimmick to earn the people's trust back?

Possibly. Only thing thats sure is Patton will never be president unless they change the laws (He's Mexican by birth).

lets hope with an intelligent president America will slowly become more intelligent as a whole.all they need to do now is remove all the uneducated creationists that are in positions such that they make decisions on schools (no joke they have these people deciding what is learned in schools)

He seems like he'll be a good President. Let's hope he is because of at the moment I can't decide if he is a good president or not yet because he hasn't done anything yet.

I skipped school to watch the Inaugaration!! now i have detention for Biology class. o.O

Why, was your school a McCain supporter? Just kidding, but didn't you explained where you where & what you were doing at that time?

WHY IS RACE EVEN IN THE EQUATION!!
On the news, in the speech, everywhere, it's always f*cking "It's a great day for the african americans", WTF?! It was a great day when slavery was stopped and equality was given! Obama's race has nothing to do with his skill! And he's half-caste ain't he?

Pshh my biology teacher doesn't care if it's inaugaration. That's why i said 'biology'' techer. For others i was free.

GO OBAMA!
