Obama's 'spirit of goodness' has registered around the United States, world

The 2008 presidential election, which is now decided and placed into America's past, will no doubt show both instances of joy and displeasure of which historians will write.
From both the Democratic and Republican sides of the elections, biographers already are assembling notes, forming outlines and writing their views about what happened the past two years.
History professors will lecture about why President-elect Barack Obama won the election. They will do research, view archived footage of both campaigns and interview those involved.
But one specific aspect historians will not soon be able to pin down and write about is what actually changed in the world's spirit.
To determine the significance of Obama's win brings up some interesting points for discussion. That said, this column is to share a view of this historical event's spirit more than its immediate or long-term result.
A close look at Obama's life, where he came from, his triumphs in life, where he obtained his education and his fast-paced rise to not only win, but to be able to energize millions on the world stage, seems very odd.
On another level, Obama's energy is what those with an intuitive spirit nature have awaited. By the reception on the world stage, people across the globe have ordained him a wise man beyond his age.
Within Eastern spiritual literature, this is the power of the sixth chakra, the energy of the "third eye." Caroline Myss, author of "Anatomy of the Spirit," wrote in her book that people with this trait have a "spiritual center in which the interaction of mind and psyche can lead to intuitive sight and wisdom."
One truly ordained, Myss said, "honors the truth that each person is capable of making deeply significant contributions to the lives of others, not just through the profession, but more important, through the quality of the person they are."??
Throughout the past two years, Obama has shown this type of spirit to the world. And the overwhelming support he received Tuesday ordained him as a man who seeks to recognize the contributions of others' lives far more than those of his own, another trait Myss attributed to a person who represents divine understanding and wisdom.?

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".
