The U.S election.

after the long and dragged out process of the american election i am quite happy with the outcome. I was in favour of Obama the whole way through because of the qualities he represented and the actions he promised to take if elected. He made promises of substantial change by removing the divide between American citizens no matter what race, religion or income they have. Such an influencial president could not have been elected at a more perfect time for this country because of the current economic crisis that it is dealing with. I think one of the main reasons that Obama got elected was because he related to the voters so well because he pushed the fact that he is a family man with good values. although i do think that he may have gained some votes in his favour because through out the election he almost become a celebrity in some people's eyes and not a presidential candidate, but then again this may have lost him votes also. I think the reason that he became so celebritized was because he was the possiblity of America having their first African American president. Over all this was a very significant election in U.S history right from the start with the democrats representing a female and an African American candidate, both of which would be a revolution for the country. The U.S is the most powerful country in the world so this is not only a huge change for just the citizens of America but the whole world.
