Keeping Up With The American Election

It's pretty much over. Barring some West-Coast miracle (not gonna happen), Barack Obama will be our next president.

In some ways, it's great. Obama is a symbol of hope, of change. He's been profoundly against the war, and he shows great promise. As well, he is just another example of how racial barriers are falling.

In other ways, it's disappointing. We see reverse racism, inexperience, questionable morals.

There is a lot of good and bad that comes with each candidate. Contrary to popular opinion, Jesus isn't a Republican.

One has to wonder, however, what this means for the United States of America.

Haha. so true.

I'm also glad Obama won. Its at least a difference. He has the charisma of JFK.
