Unburnished hope

Many people will say many smarter things than I about this presidential election.  My only comment is how this will change the representative face of the US.  If this will make a difference in foreign affairs remains to be seen, but by all accounts Obama was the preferred candidate in most countries polled.  I have not been an unabashed Obama supporter, in fact I disagree with him on many counts, but I believe there is no mistaking that he represents a movement in this country.  Will his presidency unite a nation like John F. Kennedy, or will he be 1 and done like Jimmy Carter?  I hope the former.
