New President of America

It's Election Day, 20 months of campaigning and driving their messages to the nation is now at an end. Obama and McCain have reached the epic point of who will be selected as America's next president.

It was clear, as everyone streamed to the polls, that Obama had a lead on the swing States (those States who could swing the deciding vote), with Obama winning PY early on. It seemed to set the trend of the day, and at the end, Obama had a landslide victory over McCain.

Our new President, and first black President of the United States - BARACK OBAMA!

In his acceptance speech, Obama drove home the message so many have heard during his campaign" "It's been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this day, in this election, at this defining moment, change has come to America,"

Our very own ex-President, Madiba (Nelson Mandela), commented "Your victory has demonstrated that no person anywhere in the world should not dare to dream of wanting to change the world for a better place."

I am looking forward to see what happens next. Obama has his challenges ahead of him, having to raise taxes for a start to pay for the "Bail-Out" on the NYSE.

I think that his wife and now First-Lady, Michelle Obama will do a good job. She seems strong and has a good raport with the people.
