I am so proud that Americans have shown that they can come together to do the right thing! Every one of us must now roll up our sleeves and get behind Mr. Obama to help him do the job he must do. We voted our support of his vision, creating this time for change and now we must not abandon him to do it alone. President Obama and citizens together, working side by side, will achieve what is best for our nation and for the world. Now we must get in the trenches with him - put our shoulders to the wheel and fearlessly work hard to fulfill our commitment to a future of promise - not just for the children of America, but for all the world's young, the next generations to carry the dream of peace, global community and prosperity forward.

What's done is done, and I am very impressed with the response from world leaders. I'm glad Obama has already raised the credibility of America, and I now hope he can continue to make good on his promises and bring prosperity to America in the next four years. He embodies what is great about this Country and its Constitution, that everyone is equal and has opportunity. He has seized this opportunity, and I hope he makes the most of it.

This proves that with a will there is a way. WIth hope there is promise. With dreams do come reality. The only requirement is effort. What I would like to see more than anything is that this 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama, holds onto his cloud of greatness and uses it to further peace, prosperity, and the rights of all humans in this country and the world. We are all our brother's keeper. We all bleed the same blood. Gay, Straight, White, Black, disabled, non-disabled: we should all be given the same basic rights granted under the wonderful document that defined this great country.

We need the world with us. We no longer have the SUPER-power capabilities to be all things to all people (countries). Especially after Preisdnet Bush and the Republican Congress for 6 of the last 8 years, bankrupted us financially. As well, we are morally bankrupt in the eyes of many citizens of the world. You may say, we don't need those other people. I would simply say, especially for the Chinese, we need their money and their investments to keep us aflota. If the Chinese pulled their money, we could probably be bought by the Saudi's. Perish the thought of that. This guy is brilliant and he sees things that are sometimes dismissed.

I think that the nation responded to a true leader, an intelligent statesman and inspirational orator. I think the world has responded as well, and I am so grateful to feel optimistic again, and cannot wait for my next trip outside the country. This time, I'll get to be proud to be an American.
