God has always used the weak elements of this world to confound the wise, His ways are not our ways. God definitely is trying to establish a new path for America which in turn will impact on the entire global land scape. America has suffered so much of international disdain in the aftermath of the Iraq'y war. She deserves better as the leader of the free world. To become relevant in the coming decade America need a new global image. Who knows, He might just use a man like Mr Obama, He moves in a mysterious way. America definitely need a fresh air, and whatever might be Mr Obama's lack of 'experience. will be conpensated for by the broad rainbow coalition he is trying to build. Any successful leader has surrounded himself with sound advisers. I think God is doing a new thing in America, and Obama appears to be the messenger.

GOD bless you Barack Obama! The United States of America is in dire need of something refreshingly new and you are that champion, David who killed the giant, Goliath! America deserves the audacity of hope, faith in miracles and fulfillmment of dreams. Clinton describes you as "all talk and no action," please reveal more of your pragmatic, workaholic nature and untiring commitment to the uplift of both the ordinary and extra-ordinary Americans! Forward Ever, Backwards Never! Go for Gold and Diamond in the contest. Never rest on your oars until victory leads you to the White House. Aluta Continua, Victoria Acerta (The Struggle Continues, Victory is Certain)! Again, may GOD almighty and Father of our Savior, JESSUS CHRIST shower blessings and victory for the American people through your election contest win, Amen!!!

Clintons had their 8 years. They were filled with Lies , scandals and impeachment. Why would anyone want to go back to that ? Go Barack ! ! !

Marc - you've struck a chord there !

Millions of dollars wasted on media adverts, entertaining and razmatazz.. .whooping and hollering ..!

Democracy - offer yourself for election .. at whatever level ..not unless you have funds

And then there's all the 'pork barrel' politics.. favours to donors.. jobs for the cronies..

A bit of disenfranchising key blocks of voters...lots of funding .. a good PR team and you too can be elected in the USA .. into 'community' jobs as well, never mind the previous incumbent's record or your own qualifications.

And of course, American 'democracy' makes that of the rest of the world somewhat irrelevant..

I am tired of those person who want to refer to obama as a African American president. He is mixed raced and entitled to the support of all people. I this is message is universal and not race-based. I think he is young and fresh and certainly can motivate the great nation of America. The united states of America is a wonderful country and has been undervalued because of what some former presidents have done.

Go obama

The most advanced country in the world spends hundreds of millions of pounds on electing their president.

The same funds represent the economy of a small 3rd world country struggling to feed its children.

No charitable fund raising campaigns could come close to what these candidates can raise & spend!

Human nature and compassion at its very best.

marc, ballymena,

run and run hard in Texas, Hillary Clinton will lost hope

roy, Danville, Ill.

Hope assurdely has audacity. His appeal is in the poetry of his message, and his message, bears the prose of a new American commonwealth of unity and not complexity. And O! yes, "we are the ones we've been waiting for."

How refreshing. Let's hear it for the return of common sense in electoral campaigns; the Obama campaign is more than about Obama. It is the belief that people can dream again, but also conduct themselves better than the sleazeballs and cynical manipulators who formed Bush's campaign team.

I think that Hillary Clinton probably has more integrity than her husband, but she represents creeping monarchy, and a vote because she's a woman, which is a cynical, politically correct vote. Obama's great achievement is his inclusiveness. The whole world, fed up with the Bush years, is excited about his campaign.

David MacKinnon, Amstelveen, Netherlands

“We always hoped it would look something like this.”

That final quote says it all...
Before the strategies and the planning... before the details and the substance... Obama, his team, and his campaign dared to Hope!

...just when i thought there was no hope left for States ;-)

Go Obama!!
