President Barack Obama

Diamond

The Red Baron
Despite all the build-up, all the expectation this is the most exhilirating political moment I've ever seen.
 
Well done obama .mind you it not going to be easy but he as got to be better than bloody bush
 
i am crying like a baby! this is wonderful :)

hes giving his acceptance speech right now.

god i am really happy about this...its amazing and what a thing to witness!

hurrah! :)
 
Barack FTW!

Man - I wouldn't like to be in his shoes now....the pressure and weight of expectations must be immense!

:eek:


Fair play to the Yanks - record voter turn-out across the board and a country that really does seem to be unanimously admitting it needs to change for the better to survive and prosper.

:cool:


A tough, tough time to take on the presidency in many ways...though he does have the luxury of superseding Bush, which gives him a healthy starter pack of "get out of jail" cards.

:)
 
you know what it is like

i've been so disillusioned with politics since i was about 20 that i just expected to be depressed as fuck. but it was actually the guy who should have won who won

he did rip off martin luther king for his speech. but that isn't such a bad thing is it?
 
yeah this is pretty historical

i'm not boycotting anymore lol

good!

i rarely get truly emotional about these sort of things, but i am so happy about this and am glad i lived to see this day and also glad my children can witness this awesome moment in history. And it IS a great moment in history. :cool:


That may sound hokey to you (or anyone), if it does sorry, but its true.


i know hes got quite a job ahead etc, but for just this moment, today, its something to stand in awe of and bask in. :)
 
We are a cynical bunch on U75, but I think we can all accept this was a little slice of history. A "where were you" moment. And yeah, that speech was special.

And for the UK? One hopes that this will have a meaning for those disillusioned in society who think British elections are not for them, young generally, and black specifically.

But the time for analysis is for other times. For now, bloody well done Obama!
 
Yeah I mean despite my cynicism, I'm fucking happy about this.

America I luv yer!

The whole world sez "phew" :)

Good to wake up to this news.
 
McCain makes a lovely speech
Obama makes an inspiring one
I feel a bit more optimistic about the USA
Stormfront servers overloaded

Life's good right now :)
 
hahaha

really i am chuffed as fuck

i have been looking forward to this for years

bush is fucking gone!!!

i know the whole thing isn't over, but that era is over
