Barack Obama: The Next President of the United States
Barack Obama: Confirmed to be 44th President of the United States
I'm sure all of you have heard the news about Barack Obama winning the presidential election. On November 4 in a historic moment, he became the first African American to be the president of the United States. In just one night, he went from being a presidential hopeful to being the actual presidential elect.
I may not be old enough to vote, but even I can't help but feel excited over the news. There's been quite a bit of discussion over at OtakuBoards as members are gathering to talk about what they think of the recent election. Some members are giddy with excitement while others are more cautious.
Regardless, I know I'm not the only one who is looking forward to when he's sworn into office in January. I think it’s going to be an interesting term to watch unfold. How about the rest of you? What do you think?
