America Has Voted…and my prayer for the New Administration

Wednesday, November 5th, 2008

America has voted, and it is a decisive victory for the Democrats and President Obama.

Every US election is a watershed event for the world as the US President has so much capacity to influence world events and global trends. In the last century American Presidents and their people has championed the cause of capitalism and a free society. By year 2000, there is hardly any tinge of communism left in the world…thereare even few democratic socialist movements left!  Liberal and permissive values are the order of the day.

As pioneers and champions of causes, we all know that often we win the war and lose it.

Capitalism, individual Freedom are today Universal and no longer American Values.  Where human injustice, tyranny exists, it is usually a an aberration of the free system rather than a remnant of any autocratice, state planning system.

The battle for a free and capitalistic world has been won. It is time to learn how to manage a Global Capitalistic Economy in an universal and not in the American Way.

Hollywood,and the American Media can of course do what it wants…but it is my main hope prayer is that under this new administration, Americans leaders will begin to see themselves as a partner in the free world and not as an advocate and defender of American Style Human Rights and Capitalism.

Under this new arrangement of shared global leadership.. ,being progressive nation is filled enterprise and initiative,  she will undoubtedly continue to lead in many issues that affect the world.

It is my hope, and I prayer that America will lead in showing the world

  1. How to cope with the excesses of capitalism. To reduce lifestyle gaps…care for the little people..let them enjoy more of the good life as the rich and the wealthy.  As the world’s most advanced capitalistic nation, it also leads in capitalist excesses. The current financial crisis coupled with a new leadership provides a great occasion for this reexamination and for change.
  2. As the world largest energy guzzling nation, using more energy per than any else, how to better manage energy use and develop alternative energy resources
  3. This election has more than any showed that the Social Networks on the internet may be used to reach, communicate and galvanize diverse groups of people in a responsible and meaningful way.  I hope America their internet communities will continue to lead the world towards responsible communication on the internet.
