Well, here goes,
Needle3ss to say, this has been a very surprising day indeed because with the election of Barack Obama as President of the USA, people will have to look at us differently now. Actually, it may become quite apparent that the Obama America is quite a bit different than the Bush America. I certainly feel that we will get the economy out of the ditch and back and functioning again; as well as the global economy too. But, there will be some role reversals also because for the green economy, Obama has said he will keep the skill and jobs in the USA and we will not sell off all of our technological know how and skills. So, when the greening starts to actually take some shape, we should be in a much better position than we are now. This guy, he came along at just the right time for us.
On Security, I, for one, sure do feel a lot better because Africa has been taken out of the equation and people will have to give some of intentions of keeping the world in fear ala Bush. I'm sure the UN is pretty happy about this proposition too. As far as the Asians go, I only know that India was for Obama and Cambodia was for McCain. I do not know about Nepal or Thailand; so I will have to go back and find out. I am in Sihanoukville, Cambodia and all of the Cambodians that I talked to said they did not want Obama to win; I never asked them if they understood that principles of Democracy were in play; I don't think it mattered to them at all. They are not champions of Democracy like Obama is. Also, I could not help but think that we are 4 years into the 2nd Ten Year Cycle of the UN study
