News info from television Barack obama Winner from Mac Chain debat so he is Want to be President America for this year and 5 year future. To a gathered crowd in Grant Park in Chicago, he announced that “Change has come to America”, a theme that dominated his campaign that began on the steps of the old statehouse in Springfield, Illinois. from scottwlewis.wordpress.com “The road may be long, our climb may 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.” His opponent, Senator John McCain of Arizona called the President-Elect and congratulated him on his historic victory and pledged in his concession speech to do all in his power to to help him lead us through the many challenges we face.
President Bush also called Obama to congratulate him, as jubilant crowds gathered outside the White House to celebrate Obama’s historic victory.
From Times Square and Harlem in New York to a little village in Kenya, people were celebrating the outcome of this election after one of the longest, hard-fought campaigns America has seen. It was also the most expensive, with the combined total reaching nearly $1 billion. Reports estimated that Barack Obama spent $8 for every vote cast for him.
Obama came from behind to capture the Democratic nomination after a long battle with Senator Hillary Clinton of New York.
He emerged victorious, selected Senator Joe Biden as his running mate, and began a general election campaign that saw the greatest economic collapse since the great depression and two very diverse visions for the country. Obama flipped key states such as Virginia, Ohio and Florida into the Democratic column, cementing his victory and dealing a blow to the red state-blue state mentality.
Tonight saw history being made in this country as we elected our first African-American president.
May God Bless him and guide him as he begins his journey to leading our nation. President-Elect Obama faces a global economic crisis, two wars, and a collapsing environment. Heavy is the head that wears the crown it has been said of leaders. Tonight, his plate got very full. But for the moment, let us who choose to bask in this historic moment and know that in America, anything is possible. We have broken through a barrier that was never thought possible and we shall wake up tomorrow once again a United States of America. The campaign is over, but the work has yet to begin. May it begin in earnest, with the promise of a better tomorrow. Yes we can!
