Pres. Obama on January 20

By winning a strong majority here in this election, Obama hurdled over another myth that, the American Black can never become the US president.

He conquered Florida, Ohio, Colorado(home of the religious right), and also Virginia(was a 40-years-republican strong hold), in which all of the them are the victories that had led Obama towards the White House.

Obama also gave a triumphant speech to the crowd after winning the race to the White House ,“Young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Hispanic, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled, Americans have sent a message to the world that we have never been just a collection of red states and blue states,”

“We have been and always will be the United States of America. "
“It’s been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this day, in this election, at this defining moment, change has come to America,” he said these when faced with an excited gigantic crowd.

The people of America has changed their own destiny by electing an American Black as their country's President, and this made me wonder WHEN will our country progress into a less racism era, and WHEN will the mentality of Malaysian will change with it.




P/S: Congrats, my fellow Obama :)
