Oh Bummer! Obama

Oh Bummer Obama. There are many in this world that do not share the optimism I do about this awesome man and how he could very easily direct us toward the way out of Recession.

Why do I say "in the right direction?"

Barrack Obama is possibly the best chance America and much of the world has as helping us all move forward out of this slump. But he is only one man at the top of a large pile of men, a man who is positive, happy and trusted. But there is something that Barrack Obama has that few other Leaders in the world have ever had...a pretty damned rough upbringing. Single Parents, Adopted, working class, BLACK. Not a great start for a leader but then again look at Jesus - his background was far from perfect and look what he has done and is doing.

Barrack Obama will see things as the man on the street will see things - Joe the Plumber - and this will make him make better decisions and think before just throwing money at the solution as George Bush has done. Barrack will think "housewife economics", he will understand how to make a little go a long way. He will create optimism in the market first before he spends a single penny.





A positive outlook is what will lead to no recession. Obama creates that with ease. Today I was at the V & A Waterfront in Cape Town, South Africa at The Funky Shop where they print pictures on T-Shirts while you wait. Whilst there 2 guys came up with a picture of Barrack Obama they had cut out from the newspaper and wanted this on a T Shirt with the the words " Obama We Can Do It". I noted the words clearly and pondered. It was not a phrase about Obama but a phrase about what he stands for. Obama is acting as a catalyst bringing people together to act as one and win or "DO IT". Not even Nelson Mandela, Madiba managed the kind of support and popularity that Obama is doing so well across the racial divide and across all continents. Madiba Obama is pretty much the perfect man for this world.

Oh Bummer! Obama. I know that many will be saying this because they were wrong about Obama. Obama is great for many and for the few he thankfully poses the right sort of threat to wake them up, shake them up and direct all towards change.

Well done America for being brave and voting for a man who will be a superb and worthy leader creating the love and affection that JFK did so many years ago. Well done!
