I want to come out with a message of support for our new president. I admire people with vision, as you may have been able to ascertain from my obsession with romanticism. I have never found Obama's words to have any hint of patronizing attitude nor condescension; he will work to make the USA better, and so should all its citizens.
If you haven't seen it yet, here his victory speech, complete with a transcription.
I am proud to be an American.
I watched it all unfold live in the university computer room. It was pretty exciting, but the atmosphere in the room was dead because the Japanese university students around me could care less. I was pretty excited though, despite it being an inevitable win.
