America has got it's mojo back!   Tuesday November 4 2008 was a great day for America and a greater day for the rest of the world. 

I am a close observer of the US and US politics and I have many friends and colleges in the US.  I manage a Sun Team in Broomfied and travel to the US often.    I have watched this election with interest and 11/4/08 will go down as a one of great historical significance.    I watched the results and the speeches from the Sun office here in Sydney and all America can be proud of the caliber of your leaders.  John McCain so gracious and Barack Obama so inspiring.  Australian political leaders could learn a great deal from both.  Obama is a true orator. 

The world needs a strong and unified United States and a strong US means a more peaceful and prosperous world.    I think Obama has the will and guts to drive change.   But the challenges are massive, however with the right policies, determination and support anything is possible.

As an Australian I have see the image and perception of the US be tarnished greatly over recent years.   With the Obama election the US has its mojo back.    However the world looks to the US for leadership and the pressure  will be on Obama to deliver on his promises and vision.

To all my American friends and colleges..  Good luck and rather than God Bless America, I say God Bless the World.
