hessian Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Hooray!!!!! The world will be a better place tomorrow. It'd be nice to think so, but I can't help feeling that a) one man cannot change the whole set-up in the USA, & b) even if he could, would he be allowed to? Good luck to him, though. Hopefully he'll make his mark & go down in history not as the first black president (er.. well.. mixed race anyway) but as the first president of integrity & moral courage in living memory. Barack, pal, if you're reading this: if you can't change the world, I'll settle for an all-expenses paid holiday for me & the mrs in the Rockies.

Your life might be shorter than mine, so far, but both Carter and Ford were quite reasonable people. That's why they didn't get re-elected (or elected in Ford's case) S.

Jimcalagon Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Obama plans to make the Isle of Man a poorer place. I think a combination of Tony Brown and the world's bankers will beat him to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
