Obama's 'spirit of goodness' has registered around the United States, world
Larry Burge
Issue date: 11/10/08 Section: Opinion
Shown also has been Obama's innate ability to stay calm, disciplined and be a seeker of the truth, as well as a searcher for the difference between truth and political illusion, a nature so prevalent among Washington's elite political players.
Obama's extraordinary rise to the world's greatest political office in our time of desperate need of a leader was ushered by slogans like "Change we need" and "Yes, we can," and it undoubtedly will write a new chapter in history.
However great our new president governs, though, history also has shown that if the governed do not progress to the same level of spirit awareness to spread goodness more than hate, selfishness and greed will prevail. The recent financial collapse and world unrest has proved this to be true.
History will show what Obama is able to accomplish during the next four years.
For now, he has done one major thing. His spirit of goodness has spread across the globe and replaced hopelessness within the hearts of many. In return, millions of voters have ordained him as the 44th president of the United States.
This is good.

President-elect Obama has reached deep into the hearts of every American, nay, citizens of the world and lifted our being to a higher existence.
Removed our hatred for individuals, classes, any man-made barrier. (Continued…)

So if this administration fails, it's the fault of the people and not of the administration? That's awfully convenient.

Obama bought the Presidency through the backing of of "private interests".
