A New Day or just a New President ?
Today I woke up feeling like a little baby on a boxing day with few gifts under my pillow, but rest assure not my pillow but the Americans pillows.
Barack Obama has won the election and become the first African-American president in the united states of America and I have to say I was just wondering how good it must feel for the American people and mostly the minorities but does it really matter ?
Well for me personally the question is not who is elected but does the elected president have the sufficient power to really govern? Can he deliver all the promises? Time will tell but still only a fool will believe every promise said in a campaign will really be deliver, right?
Everyone happy but I think there are lot of differences why everyone is happy.
I am happy because I really believe Obama will deliver better and politically he will give people much more hope of better future (although that future can seem very long), but:
Lot of people are happy just because he is black and mostly they think he’s going to do some different or turn misery upside down overnight. Let’s face it, it’s going to take lot and we just need to keep supporting him much, as he said:
Quote “We may not get there in one year or even one term, but America – I have never been more hopeful than I am tonight that we will get there. I promise you – we as a people will get there.”
The colour of his skin going to play lot in his future days as president either we like it or not, lot of news flash, controversy, words taking out of contest as our media do often and generate lot of tension.
I just hope we the people learn to distinguish between good and bad and when really bad taking a good colour to fool us, don’t just believe everything you see in the news (and you know them ;d ), educate yourself, research yourself , don’t just follow, be free, be independent.
Remember the night is long but the day will always come!
Notes: I always think he will win though as everything looks like from the start a big master plan ahead.
