Barack Obama: "service and sacrifice".

Different ruler. Same system.

I have yet to see anyone who supports Obama actually cite a policy of his (possibly because he has no original ones)

America went from an inexperienced alcoholic to a younger inexperienced ex drug addict. Great change.

His entire campaign was nothing but rhetoric.

Actual policies>hope

Haha, I would :wink:

I like him because I think he will make a fresh change in politics, however theres rumours that he wants to dump the UK and just make buddies with the EU, if he does that then we might need to start looking for another bed to jump in. I hear Russia's nice this time of year lol.

btw what the hell does that mean? We are certainly not a new American junior and if anything we are more like the grandparent of America.[/QUOTE]

There's a difference between the political situation and what people like to think America's relationship with Britain should be.

I reckon he wants to make closer links with Middle-East while ditching the west?

Well today I bought a copy of "The Times" from my local newsagents to keep up-to-date with some economical/political news because im sick of reading it all online...it just doesn't feel traditional or has exciting lol and there was a moderate thick pull-out just on Barrack Obama lol! Is it just me or is the UK only one of the main countries over-exageratting over him? I think its because we are like the new American Junior!?

What are your personal views on him? I think hes all talk to talk at the moment trying to look good to the americans but I will make my final views when I see him in power and making political decisions and changes! But I do have a feeling he will be better for black people and americans in general than Bush!

Off topic....but you're not Amit Desai from QE Boys by any chance are you ?!?!?! o_O

his a democrat, so like labour in the UK, he will be better

The Democrats are closer to the Conservatives in terms of ideology and manifesto.

He's kewl I guess, and he's making the mulatto race more recognised too even though some people are still ignorant enough to call him black even though he's said he's mixed... bleh I hate it when we're pigeon-holed :s-smilie:

He can't make loads of major changes, but if nothing else, he's changed a lot of the world's perception of America.

Give the man a chance to do this thing. If he messes up, then rant about him, but for now give him a little bit of your hope.

If you think about it, 'hope and change' have both been accomplished already.

I love Barrack and I am proud to say I voted for him. :smile:

Edit: Fail spelling.

I think he's just what the world needs in these tough, tense times. And his perceived closeness (by the middle east) to Islam might just help to reduce the extremist threat. His eloquence and ability to bring people together is all-important today!
