the new president

Congratulations with your new president, and let's hope that the US will take their responsibility, that they will lead the way, humble, in the true spirit of the founding fathers.....

I am very impressed with his speech and I am very hopeful that he will live up to what he has said.

I think its great to see a nation that celebrates its leaders, I mean they were CHANTING his name! Can you imagine people in the UK chanting "Gordon, Gordon, Gordon..." didnt think so.
"The rule of Gondor is mine!"

The President of the United States is a very different role to the Prime Minister of Great Britain. The President is the Head of State whereas in Britain that role belongs to the monarchy. The Prime Minister is merely the highest ranked civil servant in the country. Its very much viewed more as a job like any other unlike the president who is much more of a figurehead.

On the subject of the innauguration I absolutely loved the speech. Very inspiring. The rest of the world is very hopeful for Obama. You don't know how much we have longed for a President who respects us and seeks to work with us rather than defy and dominate us.

Don't get too swept up in the magic of Obama, remember, he's a politician. Politicians make big promises and rarely keep them.

That's why I stated: I hope....maybe at this moment there is nothing more I hope for...Than the US to be led by common sense and great awareness

Wow how did someone so young become so cynical? Try having so Hope and positivity. Even if you don't have faith that Obama knows what he is doing have faith in Gods wisdom cos he is the one who has placed Obama where he is.

God is on everyones side. I believe that God is in control of all things and that if Obama has been placed in power it is because God wanted him there.

historic moment: Obama is the first President with open ties to domestic terrorists and open racists.

Blah blah blah I'm a sore loser. ;)
Obama won, he's the president now. Deal with it. And support the man, I mean, he IS the one that's supposed to save your sorry behinds from the HUGE economic crisis, so I'd show a little more faith. Heck, I hate my president's GUTS, but I'll still support the man when he's doing his job.
