During his campaign for the Presidency, the new President of the United States of America, Barack Obama said, “I’m asking you to believe, not just in my ability to bring about real change in Washington, but in yours.”
Americans responded positively and with an overwhelming outpouring of confidence, the people elected the first Black President of the United States on November 4th 2008.
President Obama is definitely fresh, with a global background and global view that will serve to bolster his commitment to bring about change in Washington.
Jamaicans in the US have primarily backed the Obama / Joe Biden campaign and have been quite organized and outspoken, making sure to spread the word and positively impact the outcome. On a very active and intense blog of theirs, President Obama has been lauded as a wonderful human being who is more than worthy of the Presidency,
On the Jamaicans for Obama blog, a blogger identified as ChicaWest wrote, “Something as crucial as a Presidential candidate or a human issues like AIDS is something worth supporting [and giving] our time and effort to. And people do so passionately because the outcome has a tendency to affect our very way of life.”
The Jamaican blogger continued, “Mr. Obama is not nor will he ever be a passing trend, he is a genuine beacon of hope with an audacious vigor for the livelihood of this country. He wants to rebuild our government, restore our faith in the political system at the federal and state levels, strategically bring our troops home from Iraq, implement universal health care and strengthen America's relationship with the rest of the world…amongst other things.”
Jamaicans are extremely proud of President Barack Obama and are thrilled by the success of their efforts in supporting what is the most exiting phenomenon that has appeared on the political scene in decades.
Yardflex extends earnest congratulations to President Barack Obama and Joe Biden on their win.
