WOW

Yep, just, Wow. I am in shock. A happy kind of shock, but I still can't believe this country elected Barack Obama. It all sounded good, people were changing their way of thinking, but I really thought that at the last minute, people would think about having a black man as president and get scared. Change their mind standing at the polls.

America - you impress me.

I think it's fantastic. Really, who would have thought we'd see the day when a black man was elected to our country's highest office?

Forty years ago he would not have been served lunch in some parts of this country. Now he can run for President and win with a clear mandate from many different regions of the country. It's a remarkable thing.

And with such an overwhelming win, too. You're so right: Americans are impressive!

But they're also fickle. We need to keep sight of the big picture and not turn on him or each other at the first sign of trouble ...
