It is really fascinating to see an American with African blood stepping into the white house. That tells you of the beauty of American democracy. In Nigeria, can a white man become president or even a minority. Well, with Obama, Hope seems audacious. But in Obama's case, it was not just that he was minortiy but also had majority's blood and support. Many black people and Nigerians were really overjoyed when the chap started his campaign and his words seem to be coming from someone who had a kind of spiritual power. But Obama didn't speak just like someone who can be considered a Christian or Moslem, he spoke like an American, like a freeborn. But as the saying goes, God moves in mysterious ways. Some religous fanatics say he'll be the antiChrist, others say he's God sent. Well, i guess what we have to do is to pray for him because i can't buy the idea of the only black American being an antiChrist, it would be devastating for the black world and a shame. I think Obama would change the world, but the world seems to be getting a little Hollywood with this Obama phenomenom
