并不是对Obama兄存什么幻想,而是对方党政作为早令人冻未条,所以我也投了一票给‘改变’ 美台两地政治风云本不相干,多年来的轨迹却高度类似,奇也。

搖滾樂似乎總與政治扯上關係,畢竟透過搖滾樂來表達自己的看法是相當常見也相當有影響力 不過歐巴馬跟約翰藍儂甚至馬丁路德金恩有何關係?不是要否定這位美國第一位黑人總統 他所代表的意義很多也很重要 但是將他與那些約翰藍儂甚至馬丁路德金恩擺在一起 或許有些... 如樓上所說 原本的真的表現的令人失望 因此改變是大家所追求的 但是還是要看他未來做的如何吧 抱歉政治化了...

to Baboa,

Lennon and Obama both against war.
And Obama completes a chapter of King's dream.

If you really want to know the story line from King to Obama, I would suggest you to read more about the contemporary American histories, and you will be impressed.

It is Americans that complete King's dream;
Obama hasn't complete anything yet (except for the election)

It's time to see what he will do, not give extra credit.

to Brilliancy,

Obama isn't the first African American seeks the presidency; check the Jesse Jackson case.

Indeed, it's Americans complete King's dream, but it's also because Obama shows his accountable candidacy throughout the whole campaign process. He makes Americans willing to vote for him.

Certainly, we need to see what he's done when he begins his reign, and the expectations are extremely high, but as for now, he deserves the credit (to get himself in the oval office).

By the way, two funny links about the election:

Obama當選我實在很開心 (畢竟自己也投了一票)
Victory speech看完後很興奮也很感動。我一直認為Obama的個性還有演說都很誠懇 (外加個人魅力十足XD)
聽了他的辯論和演說後深深覺得他就是那一種會照顧人民的總統。
姑且不論Obama是否還太年輕或是其他的因素,我相信他會帶給美國新的氣象。:)
