I know, I know. And I expect him to deliver fully on that note. But seeing people huging each other in the middle of the street, tearful reverant Jessie Jackson, a mass of people devotedly sucking up every word of his victory speech... it made me sort of worried. He morphed from a popular politician to an almost messiah-like figure in the eyes of most people. And that will be hard to fulfill fully once the real world kicks in. Again I have absolutely no doubt he'll be one of the best - if not the best presidents America has ever had. But will it be enough for people who expect literaly miracles from him?

I do hope it'll be enough for a second term though. Cause you know what they say... once you go black...

Obama Rolling
True to his word...

Religion is an insult to human dignity. With or without it you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.
