Thank you! I hope we can all stand up to the horrors that will be presented to us.

It is so typical that (for lack of a better term or way to phrase it) liberals demand tolerance. Yet, if anyone disagrees with them, we should “Go to hell”. Where is the tolerance for MY views. I am sick of the double standard of the United States today. By the way, Al Quida does not want peace and Obama now makes my job more dangerous as in my job, I will be on the 'front lines' when terrorists strike in the US. Bush has had the wisdom to fight them outside of our borders.

Please let me know what the change is going to be? I went in with an open mind at the beginning of the election listening to both candidates. I heard change, change, change, from Obama and Biden, but still, I have no idea what that change is going to be.
I will not join the Obama cult because of this. I love my country and will stay in it. I will not pull the “I will move to another country because I do not like who was voted into office” card.
I hope to God in one year I am wrong, but I do not think I will be. If I am, I will gladly admit it, and move on. That is what is so wonderful about this country. We shall see what this miraculous “change” is going to be. I just hope it does not go against everything our forefathers fought for, i.e., liberty and freedom.
I was not crazed for either candidate that was laid before me in this election. I voted, and my candidate did not win. I accept that. I will listen to what my president says; I may not like it at all times and at other times, I may agree. I will never be able to accept the fact that so many American citizens voted so blindly. I do not believe that many of them looked into the facts before they voted.
Please do not call me a hater. I am not. I sincerely did my homework on both candidates. I honestly do not think Obama has enough time as a leader to automatically become one.

So what do you know of the “better man” ? Do you know where he actually stands on the issues? You said you didn't live in the U.S. so you're not entirely effected by this as we Americans are. You don't have to suffer the taxes and the economy.

I won't participate of back up Obama as a president because I am not for helping to bring this country down. Who cares if we judge him before he is officially sworn in. Everyone judges people when they first see them. If you see a gothic teenager walking down the street what do you do when you first see them? You judge them. Don't tell us not to judge the highest authority if we think he will make the U.S. crash and burn. The whole presidential election is based on judgment and based on the voting America has poor judgement.

Man, some of you Americans are special indeed. Just accept that after an unsuccessful period of Republican rule that has left the world in economic crisis and left everyone in it looking over their shoulders in a perpetual state of paranoia and fear, the American electorate has woken up, smelt the coffee and voted for change…you guys have witnessed democracy in action, and I for one commend you for it.
From my own viewpoint (and I readily accept I do not live in the US so maybe I have not been exposed to as much propaganda as you guys) the best man won. You cannot argue with a democratic election (Actually Bush did quite successfully in Florida last time around), although im sure someone will give it a go.
Nows the time to get behind your new president and get this economy back on track again. Politicians can argue the toss about this till the cows come home, but I firmly believe everyone has a part to play in sorting this out. It is time everyone took responsibility for their own debts. It is time everybody (by this I mean individuals, companies, governments, countries, everybody!) took responsibility for their finances and started to live within their means. If the global economy is currently shrinking then it is time for everyone to tighten their belts and sit it out.
I would welcome constructive debate regarding this.

What is it with you people and race? Obama's policies are the problem, not his race. How many times do you need to be told that?

I wonder if all of the negative things that are being said on this website would be said if our President Elect were a White man. Would Conservatives be so adamant about the opinion of Obama running the country further into the ground if he were all Caucasian? The fact is: this is the man that the majority chose to run this country. Many of you are premeditating his failure before he's even inaugurated! How can he be blamed for something that he hasn't even done yet?? While there are many people who didn't approve of George W Bush being our country's President, we did what we had to as American citizens to go on with life. The same thing applies now. We as a country need to focus on doing our part as citizens and back this man up regardless of how we THINK he may perform. I totally agree with blogger Carolyn… give Barack Obama a chance. I'm not here to call anyone names, point fingers, or tally faults. Give the man a chance.

He's Black! He's Black! He's Black! That's all you here! What's the deal? All African-American Church members that voted for this muslum should be ashamed of theirselves. This great Country, it's laws, civil rights even human rights was birthed from the 1611 King James Bible! The Bible that this muslum has clearly blasphemed many times!! Wo unto me! This shakes the very foundation of evey freedom that we in America and only in America have!!!

Supporting our troops and their families needs to be on the top of the short list. Before, during and after we win the wars.
