What does the re-election
of President Barack Obama mean for me and the world?
I personally think that the re-election
of Barack Obama means mainly two things to me and perhaps to the world as well.
The first of which is that the United States of America will continue to seek the
democratic goals made ever since early 2009 instead of replacing them with
other goals that republicans such as Mitt Romney made to perhaps weaken the
country more than Obama would. Obama could have been considered lucky for any
reason for being elected instead of McCain, but the next victory could not have
been luck. In my opinion, the iconic phrase “Yes we can” opens many doors for
the betterment of the country, unlike Romney´s campaign, which opposed such
things as gay marriage. I may not know much about politics, but if Obama really
did have bad goals, the population would vote for Romney instead.
Obama Campaign Poster and Winning Speech:
The other aspect that stands out more than the political one is the fact that blacks have the same advantages as whites, perhaps affecting thoughts of racism. The black population has the same potential as the white population, so the 2012 election really shouldn´t and didn´t have any such advantages, except for intellectual ones. Blacks and whites are both the same species, but why criticize one little difference in order to choose who to vote? This obviously leaves the United States of America open to corruption. If we don´t change our mental ways, these stereotypes may lead to the downfall of this very country.
