Barack Obama Elected President

Democrat Barack Obama was elected as the first black president of the United States of America on Tuesday night.

The 47-year-old senator from Illinois defeated Republican Sen. John McCain. Officials said voters came out in record numbers on Election Day — 130 to 140 million people.

The crowd is going wild in Grant Park in Chicago, where Obama will give his first public speech as president-elect.

Obama will be sworn in as the 44th President on January 20, 2009.

Oh my gosh gas is gonna go up!!! Now that we have a democratic for president!! Here we go again with over $4.00 gas prices!!

I pray that may the good Lord Almighty wash President Obama and his family in his ever flowing blood of Jesus!

May He stomp anyone who dares wish harm on him, in the name of Jesus Christ!

This is more than historical…I cannot describe it, but yet the work has just begun!

This must absolutely represent the end of accusations of racism in the US. When a black person holds the highest office in the land, there is NO room left for the argument that blacks cannot succeed due to skin color; it sure starts looking like a convenient excuse.

I’d say this will be the beginning of **** to hapen….

Omg. I’ve never seen so much negative on this country over all this stupid shittt that has nothing to do with the shitttt we are in Gay? Abortion? Jews? wtf do jews have to do with hurting america. and btw im not black and i make a lot of money but i have friends who work harder then most and don’t have good pay who deserve to earn more. I VOTED FOR OBAMA! i am a Republican too have been for years but after Bush we do need a change. An being a black president first ever. It is a big thing for america maybe not to the rest of the world but it proved to the rest of the world we are not the idoits we used to be.

Obama/biden in whitehouse :D
History has been made.
God bless America
God bleck Barack Obama

The only hope for us is ALIENS!

Haters and loosers I laugh in you faces. You’re all loosers and you thought your hatred would stop him from winning. Now you and your dumb Palin can crawl back into your Alaska jungle and remain there. God bless America and long live the Obamas.

annabelle @ 11/05/2008 at 1:24 am

Yes plenty of idiots still here

Is it just me or do people realize hes not black but coloured?
Anyway., hope he does excellent things for our great America!

Even though when the honeymoon phase ends and he starts making decisions people dont like, we’ll see how that goes!!

It happened with all the presidents before. :-)

Congrats Obama!

OBAMA GIRL @ 11/05/2008 at 1:28 am

AMERICA, YOU DID THE RIGHT THING.

Today is a day that we all will remember, a day for our children and a day for the future of our country. We have to forget what is red or blue or white or black, but to remember that we are a great country that is made up with great people. I see hope and change for our country; I have never been more proud to be an american. God bless America and everyone

Ignorance is a shame. Choosing to be ignorant is vile.

Congratulations to our new president!!!

annabelle @ 11/05/2008 at 1:32 am

It is sad to see how many are so stupid. Bush might ruin lots of s… but w/ Mc Cain we had chance for CHANGE for better .Osama Obama is nobody, we will all suffer.

Papua New Guinea @ 11/05/2008 at 1:33 am

OBAMA WILL RULL THIS WORLD WITH PEACE AND HOPE.

GOOD LUCK IN YEARS FOR YOUR PRESIDENCY.

FROM PAPUA NEW GUINEA.

lol Putting McCain and “change” together is funny to me considering McSame agreed with Bush 90% of the time during his presidency. Yep, that’s “change” alright. But anyways, here’s wishing Obama/Biden good luck with the presidency. May God bless their families and god bless everyone in America. From your friends across the pond.
