In the just concluded US presidential election result, the American people had made a great breakthrough. They had chosen an African American, “with a funny name” Barack Obama as the 44th President of the United States. With the promise to bring change to America, the 46-years-old Democratic Senator of Illinois won big with a landslide victory by winning electoral votes of 338 over McCain 163.
Before 4th November 2008, we can only see the African American President through the Hollywood's movies. But now it is real happening before our sight.
What this scenario tells us? The American people had once again been creating another great history in the world. They possess the wisdom, determination and capacities to constantly producing miraculous and remarkable greatness.
In the science and technology, the American had invented the internet which is initially being used for military purpose. Yet they had shared this technology out to the world and help to mould the different way people were being connected and promote a novel way of communication.
In the business world, there were Microsoft, Google, Dell, Amazon, Citibank etc whose successful brand names had implanted depth into our minds and integrated breadth into our daily life. They were all originated from the America.
And of course, the American people were smart and creative enough to popularize the securitized mortgage debts which were the major elements causing the current meltdown of the global financial markets and banking system.
Democracy, freedom, innovation and risk were those values connected to the American people. That is why they are able to create constant impacts to the world.
