the once in a lifetime experience, an inspiration to look up to, against all odds, he had prevailed...i'm happy for my second country. it could only get better bec. of him from now on :) hopes of more jobs to be created here so that the economy will get going back on the right track again...now there is light glimmering at the end of the tunnel, finally :) not just an illusion or a dream but truly a reality that you can hold on and feel...happiness is here at last :>
why Obama won...he will "spread the wealth" according to John McCain. i thought when he mentioned that at the end of his rallies, that stamped him as a loser. to Obama it means sharing the wealth to the less fortunate and that is more like it where the crown will be won and it did :)
second the Bush economics did it. more tax cuts, or tax breaks for the rich just like him and ignoring the poor and the middle class by shipping jobs out of the country for more profit to their pockets. many said that he stole the election from Al Gore then by winning Florida where the governor was his brother then but look at the result. he is now the president known to have the lowest approval rating leaving office ever that the Republicans running for re-election dare not have him at their sides, a negative. and the country is in dire situation having the worst economic situation ever since the depression. Green Span said he never anticipated this to happen. no one saw the warning signs but i think it was just ignored until it could no longer be set aside. mortgage banks are failing due to foreclosures. people out of job can't simply keep their homes, pure and simple. no jobs, no salary and no money to spend which triggers the economy to move in the right direction. Obama understands this so i have high hopes now that the future of this country is going to be bright :)
