Obama Barack swept to victory just a few hours ago to become the first black president of the United States of America. After being elected, his reply to the world is "... change has come to America...". The result saw him triumphed over John McCain to secure at least 270 votes, thereby achieving a sound 349 votes, in contrast to John's 162 votes; that is a good 68.3% victory for the Democratic Senator.

It turns out that most of his votes came from young people, black people and first-timers. Nevertheless, the great relentless speech coupled with battling campaign ensures his victory is worthwhile.
Undoubtedly, America is set to ensure multiple changes within the cabinet as well as the governing policies when the Bush presidency comes to an end.
