Making history as the first black US President, Barack Obama won the votes by a landslide to enter the White House as the nation’s 44th President come 20 January 2009.
This result will be like a ray of light piercing through the dark clouds of our global stormy situation, offering a glimpse of hope to many.
I congratulate Obama and I’m truly happy he didn’t pick Hillary as a running mate.
It is a new world!
No doubt Obama is the better choice.
Hope to many? Maybe, maybe not.
The contents of Obama’s note placed in the Western Wall is rather interesting. Intentional or not?

Personally, his (Obama’s) win inspires some hope for Singapore politics; a glimpse of what democracy stands for and it can do for ordinary folks like me and my fellow Singaporeans.
