The Triumph of Change

W00t! that would the Democrats be saying had they been on an internet gaming portal.Barack Hussein Obama deserves accolades for smothering life out of the Republicans by making a landmark win over the dyed-in-wool Republican, John MacCain,in the US presidential election.”Country First” has been vanquished by “Change We Need”.The news of Obama’s victory is significant in many ways.

Firstly, it has come from a country which has seen the end of slavery only a mere 150 years ago.The victory of a black to the highest office in one of the most racist country does represent the changing moral Zeitgeist.Today every American can raise his/her head proudly & say that “America is the land of miracles”. The fair-skinned ones have paid in this manner for the ill-treatment meted out to the blacks in their country.Of course,racialism & inter-ethnic feuds may still be prevalent in USA but it has shown the world that it is really a leader of the New Secular Order .

Obama’s victory is significant in a second way too It has won love for the US in many of its arch-rivals & critics.

Thirdly,people all over the world are hopeful that the economic meltdown would be contained.

Barack Obama would naturally drive a little left than the centrist Bill Clinton but that does not stop him from deserving a hurrah for rescuing the US & the world from past eight calamitous George W. Bush years next and four MacCain-Palin years.Although, the change is a small one but it is bound to bring a paradigm shift in the American & the world politics for the times to come.
