Obama- 44 President of U.S. 20/1/09


The inauguration of Obama may or may not be America's dream come true. But I can't say that. He may be the nation's best president yet. It's totally unpredictable. 2009-2013 will probably be America’s Pax Romana or its collapse. All we can do is hope. Hope that in these 4 short years, the United States will rise to do its best to restore what their forefathers had instilled since the year 1620. But if Obama retires from office, will what good he has accomplished also retire with him? Perhaps he is the one who will delay the fall of America just like Emperors Diocletian and Constantine did. The nation has fallen slowly but steadily these past years, but, with God’s leading and guidance, if they take it, this country can gain back the ground lost. They must do their part by trying their best to work with the Lord’s leading. We'll see. :]
