It’s Morning in America
06Nov08
My peoples, what can I say? Obama’s victory took us off into that bright, glowing place that we only get to visit about once every decade. Granite walls collapsing into dusty puddles, the innocent dancing of my son to an unknown song, a quiet moment of humble and well deserved victory, love.

My thoughts exactly. And doesn’t the dawn seem brighter after such a long, dark night.
Indeed it does, Don. Crazy how many people around the world expressed similar feelings.
Biden´s prediction about a manufactured crisis ¨like in the Kennedy Administration¨… It will be interesting to see what transpires in the months and years ahead – at least with a man of inteligence at the helm will having a fighting chance to handle and direct things that will invariably be tossed his way.
Oh, no doubt. China and Russia routinely test new presidents to a diplomatic challenge, if only to see how they react and to remind the new kid who the other bullies are. Of greater concern is a home brewed “November surprise” by crippled tyrants Bush & Cheney, most likely involving large explosive devices and a certain country named Iran.
I don’t know a lot about american politics, but that doesn’t mean I can’t be a big fan of mr Obama. Actually, I can’t wait ’till next year. I hope he will show us and give us what we expect, not only in the US, but around the world…
