President Obama wins four more years!

President Obama wins four more years!

Barack Obama promised the American people that the the best is yet to come" as he accepted a second term in the White House after easily beating off the challenge from his Republican rival, Mitt Romney.

With a second chance to fulfil some of the expectations that greeted his election in 2008, Obama used his soaring victory speech � by far his best of the entire campaign � to press for a bipartisan approach to politics and returned once again to his theme of hope.

In a speech that lasted more than 25 minutes, Obama told the ecstatic crowd of supporters at his victory rally in Chicago: "Tonight in this election, you, the American people, reminded us that while our road has been hard, while our journey has been long, we have picked ourselves up, we have fought our way  back. And we know in our hearts that for the United States of America the best is yet to come." Read the full story on the Guardian

The Root concluded: The party of Romney chose to favor the powerful and privileged, inequality and intolerance, whether the issue was the undocumented among us and how to deal with immigration; abortion and womens rights; the rights of gays and lesbians; or whether our tax code should continue to privilege the rich and powerful or call for them to carry a greater share of the tax burden.

This election is an inflection point. It is the consolidation, first and foremost, of a multiracial progressive Obama coalition that is now the dominant electoral force in American national politics. Republicans will never again, so long as their policy agenda remains as it is, command a winning national coalition. Too many fundamental social trends run against it. A mix of more progressive white voters, especially white women, African Americans, Latinos, Asians and other people of color, now sets the national agenda.


I am glad he won. This victory is even better than the first time. I hope that black communities in Europe will again be inspired by this victory.
