Not a lame duck President, this one!

By achieving the majority of the popular vote in the American Presidential Election, and a majority in both the Senate and the House of Representatives, Barack Obama and the Democratic Party have a mandate to make a difference after 4 years of a lame duck President, who got in for his 2nd term via a controversial result in Florida, that many still question to this day. I can only hope that Barack Obama turns out to be a man of action as well of words, otherwise the massive expectancy could eventually turn against him.

The great thing is that the American People have voted in an African American for the first time in their history, which is terrifically refreshing and exciting. His energetic 21 month campaign certainly merits his big win, so lets hope he can unite what is clearly a divided America, with well over 50 million of the American Electorate voting for John McCain. Will they accept the result? If they don’t embrace change, Barack Obama’s base could almost guarantee him a 2nd term now, given the sweeping endorsement that winning over twice as many Electoral College votes over Senator John has given him. Congratulations President Obama!
