Last Nov.4 history was made when Sen. Barack Obama became America’s first black president, promising “Change” to a country hit hard by a financial crisis. It’s no surprise that he won considering the US, if not the world, has been obsessing over him for months. Even Filipinos seem to know who he is. Hell, I even overheard a commuter on the bus the other day saying she liked Obama. Add to that the endorsements from high-profile celebrities like Oprah & the majority of US media sucking up to him & you have a presidency that’s pretty much in the bag. There’s even one US news anchor admitting on-air to feeling a “thrill going up his leg” whenever Obama talks.
There’s no doubt that between him & his opponent, John McCain, Obama has the least experience & lacks the qualifications to be president, but why was he elected? Even the Board of Directors of a Multibillion-dollar company know enough to vote for the most experienced & most qualified member to be their CEO, but in the case of Mr. Obama that didn’t happen. He won mainly because of his charisma & his skin color. Never mind the fact that he lacks experience, or that he’s friends with a known domestic terrorist & other radicals, or has worked for an organization charged with voter fraud on several US States, or had a wacko pastor who screams “God damn America” during his sermons. He’s a good speaker & looks good on stage anyway, plus he has a great jump shot too! He’s the perfect poster boy for America’s celebrity-obsessed culture & liberal white guilt. This reminds me of a funny line I read somewhere on the internet about electing a midget just for the sake of having the first midget US President.
The Obama campaign also acted like a well-oiled machine compared to McCain’s, & was smart enough to take advantage of the financial crisis & use it as a weapon against him, stating that McCain would just continue the “failed policies” of the Bush administration, almost blaming Bush for the crisis itself but ignoring the fact that most Americans have actually earned more since Bush got re-elected in 2004. If you’re gonna vote for someone to bring about real change then vote according to his character, experience & accomplishments, not just on his popularity or skin color. Sadly, that was exactly the way most Americans voted. We’ll just have to wait & see if Mr. Obama really lives up to the hype.
