So, Obama has won the election and is now the first African-American president of America. What is to come for America, what bills will be passed, what laws enforced and what actions taken to the current economic situation lies in a blur for all of us. As much as we say we will not be affected much by what is happening there in U.S.A. , we cannot deny that what is done will indirectly alter our lives.
A new president will never fail to make some smile, but also never fail to cause hardened hearts to grow even colder. No one pleases everyone. However, the fact that Obama had won the elcection by a landslide, goes to show the people have a made a stand, and a stand that has almost their life depending on it.
"The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year or even one term, but America I have never been more hopeful than I am tonight that we will get there. I promise you we as a people will get there. "There will be setbacks and false starts. There are many who won't agree with every decision or policy I make as president, and we know that government can't solve every problem. But I will always be honest with you about the challenges we face. I will listen to you, especially when we disagree. And above all, I will ask you join in the work of remaking this nation the only way it's been done in America for 221 years block by block, brick by brick, calloused hand by calloused hand.

The speech was said to be a speech of hope, rather than a speech of much confidence. Hope. Sounds like someone's band.
