Obama Wins – I Can Finally Forgive My American Friends!

By

obama08After months of waiting and speculation, my favourite to win the US elections, Barack Obama, HAS WON!! I’ve been following him closely since I was working in the US (Baltimore, MD) earlier this year and my co-worker Sri, who was one of his biggest supporters in Seattle, kept going on about him and how great he was! I wrote a blog here on why I though he should win and what he should do to make the world a better place back in January, and was fortunate to see him speak live in Baltimore in February (see here). He definitely is very charismatic and inspiring, and most importantly SMART (not retarded like GW Bush) but I guess now we will have to see if he can live up to his hype. He has a tough ride ahead; a world economy tumbling, 8 years of damage to repair after the worst, most retarded world leader ever to get elected (but like my Murphy’s, I’m not bitter :p) and a huge amount of foreign government borrowing (I believe is or is projected to reach 60% of GDP).

Anyway, I wish him all the best, while I may not be America’s biggest fan, a well run and prosperous America is essential for the rest of us.
