Tuesday November 4th, 2008 will be a day for the history books. Today, the first African American has been elected the President of the United States of America. He came with a dream to bring change to the American people and change he had brought for a new beginning of America. Obama wanted to let his voice be heard for all people living in America to send a message to the world that the United States of America would be united once again.
Obama and McCain ran one of the most popular election races of all time, and in the end Senator John McCain set his differences aside from Obama to congratulate him on winning the race.
Obama did not just win the election, Obama won the election by a large margin. At last update, Obama led by 297 to 147 electoral votes. Obama also led the popular vote by a large amount as well.
Obama’s victory was highly likely when Obama had locked up the two battleground states of Ohio and Pennsylvania. This gave Obama the high likeliness of getting elected; however, as the evening progressed, the victory became more and more likely.
However, will Obama be able to rise to the challenge of reforming America and making the changes required to save America from a current economic disaster.

Obama’s Future

Let’s review the promises that Obama has made to make the changes to America to put America back on track:

Obama’s Legacy

Before Barack Obama even takes the role as commander and chief, he has already made many historic changes. He will be looked back upon as a historic figure and a person who will define America for the next hundred years. If he can successfully lead the country through these major economic times, then he could become an even more distinct figure in history. This moment in history is one of the most historic moments especially with minorities. This could be the next great president.
