Go read your books Bush, preferably in some remote bush, in some remote place in the universe where we can’t hear you, see you or smell you… We are not interested in what you have to say… We had to listen to you for eight years and see where it got us! No! Just go and leave us alone!
I’m a huge fan of Obama althought I fear he’ll have to disappoint us at some point. He’s not Superman or Spiderman or Batman or any of those classic American hero’s. But he’s a man who has shown more integrity than his predecessors and who gives a message of hope. I really hope he’ll have the space to do what has to be done, even when it will have to hurt. His first actions look very promising, I hope he’ll continue in this new direction.
A thing that strikes me is the humility and humanity that he shows when speaking to the public. He doesn’t sit on an ivory tower, far from the people. It might have been a PR stunt, but I rather believe that the day before he became the 44th president of the USA, he genuinely offered his services as a volunteer to keep in touch with us, normal mortals.
His life has changed radically and ours might too, if he shows us a path of diplomacy, peace, humility, humanity and -allow me to be very sentimental- love… The loving and proud look on his wife’s face, standing next to him during his vow, was, to me, the most beautiful moment of a beautiful race.
May God and all non-deities that populate your Oval Office be with you. Good luck, Barack Hussein Obama.
