Obama's Victory

The November 4, at 5.00 am in France, we heard about the Obama's Victory as President of the US, a good new waited for so long. We've seen people crying, jumping, sreaming, becoming crazy. At this moment, we felt a great joy and shared their hope because of all the changements that he wants to bring. We would love to be with them in live and not behind TV. It was a moment full of emotions who made us dream. People seemed so touched and excited, it was like if he will change the world in a wonderfull place. But we think that people could be less excited, because even if his program seems good and will probably change the life of a lot of american, he didn't do it yet. We like the fact that his program is based on social reforms like change the social system in order to be more performing and protective, to make easier to the poors to go to college, to put the minimum wage up, and fight against the poverty. He embody hope for the middle class & the lower class, and the american dream because of his origins.
We loved his investiture speech, he is very charismatic and all the thanks that he gave were beautiful and heartfelt. Everybody was attracted by what he said and by his famous "YES WE CAN!" He seems to realize that peaople are expecting a lot of him and we hope that he will do everything that he promised. Because people are very exciting by his victory but now he has to make his projects a reality. The fact that he is a african american shows that the mentalities change and is a good hope for the egality of races. He is a new symbol as was Posa Park or Martin Luther King and we hope that he will impress America just like they did.
