Like a lot of other people I was really happy to see Barack Obama get elected the 44th President of the USA. I’ve been following Obama’s speeches and policy positions for the last 6 months or so and had come to the conclusion that he would be a breath of fresh air for the USA and the wider world. Hopefully he will be able to manoeuvre as he wants in the current economic crisis, and that he gets the full 2 terms. Heck I hope he is so successful that there is a popular uprising to set aside the 22nd Amendment to the US Constitution that limits Presidents to 2 terms.
Looks like my Electoral College vote prediction was right on the mark 🙂 That prediction was built on the excellent information posted on the 538 site in the weeks running up the to the election.
