I have waited a long time for such a leader.
This reminds me very much of the hope and optimism around President Kennedy.
I hope everyone around the world gets behind the changes he may bring.
That's no surprise coming from a self-loathing liberal as you. Yes, Obama is the Leader aka Fuehrer you have been waiting for. Every time you socialists show your true colors unintentionally.

the general feeling is Obama will not be continuing the Bush doctrine of hell fire from the air. his doctine concerning the muslim world supposedly will be along the lines of "hope it works out allright for you people". so depending on if anyone believes islamic militants will throw out their doctines and become moderates because of Obama, only history will tell.but I wish him luck though.I like him.
