The 2008 presidential race has and continues to be good for america and the wider world, one of the things its proved is that you don't need to have deep pockets or connections to win, Barack Obama is proof of that, he defeated Hilary Clinton despite being a new comer.
It has also energised alot of young people to become active, it has made them realise they can make a difference. As for the rest of the world, It has given us something to dream about!
