Change Has Come

Tonight (from our timezone, haha), Barack Obama will be sworn in as the 44th President of the United States.

His very nomination & election was hailed as a triumph of the Americans over the bias of race, and now, he prepares to undertake the challenges that lie ahead.

Goodbye, George Bush. Unpopular and definitely not too bright he was, and is leaving a lot of problems for the next leader to fix.

Obama sure has his work cut out for him.

It's funny, what a person being interviewed about Obama on TV said:

"Change doesn't happen with one man alone."

I agree. However...

It only takes one man to START change. The rest, well, is up to everyone else who desires the same.

Change has truly come. And it is our fervent wish that it be for the better.

The best of luck to you, sir.
