A new President; a new age?

What a tremendous opportunity for unity and good Barack Obama represents; the chance of a new inclusive age where America listens to the world instead of dictating to it. This election has got to be celebrated for what it COULD bring. It's not for UKpopdems to pour cold water over the dream but just ten years ago Britain had its own dream in Tony Blair. This man, a great communicator, promised change, inclusion and the assurance that things could only get better. Yet only six months later he had fallen under the lure of big business, the spell of puppet masters and spin merchants, the self-interest of a greedy elite. What could have been Britain's new Camelot turned into a ruin of targets and tick boxes instead of real delivery. Obama can bring peace and prosperity to the world and we wish him well. But, above all, God protect him from the crazed red-neck with a gun.
