Obama To Be Next President!


Here is an excerpt from Barack Obama's Victory Speech:

If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible; who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time; who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer.

It's the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Latino, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been a collection of Red States and Blue States: we are, and always will be, the United States of America.

It's the answer that led those who have been told for so long by so many to be cynical, and fearful, and doubtful of what we can achieve to put their hands on the arc of history and bend it once more toward the hope of a better day.

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.

Hi,
I´m a Mexican gay guy who lives in Monterrey, Mexico.
I guess you wonder where that place is.
The people, down here, is very happy with your new President.

The question that we, the Mexicans, are asking for is: How long would the rednecks and bigots
would permit that a black man stays on The White House?

Frankly, for me, it´s an enigma.

Sincerely yours.

OOOh! Fantastic, much better than McCain. YET, what can he do to alleviate the second-class citizenship of the LGTBs, thanks to California's prop8? That and the economy...well I hope Congress is supportive.
