Who would have thought that this would have been a result of an obama victory. Very, very sad.

A very funny video. Thank you promoguy. Actually I think that the video shows a part of the truth. If you have worked hard for a case, and the case is solved, you can feel emptiness in your life. Let’s hope the energy before the election will be used to something sensible now.

To the question about how Obama’s victory will influence the life of the African- American youth/ethnic minorities, I’m quite sure, it only will have a positive influence. What I have seen in TV are happy faces, people, who think their lives have got a new value, people, who have got a role model, people, who now are more proud of their country, but also people, who are aware that Obama cannot solve all the problems overnight. It touches me, and I still got tears in my eyes, when I see these happy faces. I so much hope that this new optimism will continue and have a positive influence on the whole world.

Many of us will say that the race issue haven’t or shouldn’t influence on Obama’s election, but now we can see that the race issue have a big effect. Most people are more than normal happy for the result, and the election have had more than normal interests for people in other countries. So as I have said before, the election of Obama confirms the American dream, and also sends a positive signal to the rest of the world about how a free country functions. And luckily it seems, as if some republicans now are able to see, that even though their candidate wasn’t elected, it in a way was positive that it became Obama. To day I cannot understand, why Hillary was my favourite, why I haven’t seen from the beginning that it’s not only experience, which plays a role.
Obama is qualified in many other ways and as an added bonus - he is African -American.
