I know in the past I got into a bit of s**t for mentioning politics here but I thought I would just say well done America for electing Barack Obama into the White House.

I know im looking forward to the next 4 years at least.

Good luck to him. He's got a huge weight of anticipation and hope of a nation/world on his shoulders.

His policies on global warming, consumption, economic regrowth, Iraq, Afganistan etc affect a lot more people than just ones in America....

Im not saying that hes the wrong choice but i dont like the fact that so many people voted FOR him because hes black
I really dont think race should play any part in it, wether it works for or against him

(BTW I do think he was probably the best candidate)

I see your point.

But im not sure what % of people voted on skin colour alone. Im sure there must have been a number that did but again I have to agree with you that he was the best for the job.

Hi Chirone

i'm guessing you don't know me very well, so i will explain;

I was only joking.

But to be serious he can change it, but not because he is the black superman, more because he inspires people so that they put their shoulders in it, it's like being drunk, you don't feel anything you could walk 20 miles in the freezing cold, but once you get sober you wouldn't last a mile LOL
