Within the next 48 hours, something that one would have never imagined, something that Martin Luther King could only dream for is going to happen. The most powerful post is being given to a man of Kenyan Origin. A man who is technically black, but as I see it as American as any other American. Obama's father was Kenyan while his mother was of English and Welsh Descent. So theoretically speaking he is not of American descent. Yet the fact that he has climbed to the top seat of power talks about the incredible person he must be. But I am guessing this happened only because he was a Democrat and not a Republican.
For one I can say that, his varied heritage and the experience of growing up on so many cultures will help him understand the world so much better than all those people who throughout the years have hardly had any idea of what the rest of the world looked like and yet, insisted on being the supreme power poking their noses into all and every affairs.
Anyways his predecessor, the butt of our numerous jokes, President George W Bush is leaving Mr. Obama a very interesting situation as a welcome gift. He must be smirking right now "Lets see how you figure this out sucker!". But I have reason to believe that he will tackle it with much more intelligence than a kindergarten kid as we have seen over the past 8 years. Lets see how he handles it in the days to come...

lol.. Ash D, truly, I agree. Obama has got a much more sensible, level head on those shoulders. Unlike his colourful predecessor!
