I had no idea of the impact that the US had on the rest of the world. You know, living in North Carolina it's easy to think in the day-to-day mind set with little concern for everything else and everyone else. I have been so excited all day watching President Obama being sworn in and so I looked at many many pictures of all of the balls and stuff. I couldn't understand why other countries were happy about a new president. I understand now. My country has been on the wrong track for a long time and the time is finally here for us to collect ourselves, as a nation, to become what we are suppose to be. I know the US is called some kind of superpower but when you live here, you don't really see it that way, so when I saw all of those comments above...it was kind of hard to believe. BUT, either way, I'm super excited about our new administration and I hope President Obama carries out his plans for our future. Wow.

I sincerely believe that the simple act of my vote, and those of everyone else who helped elect Obama, did change the way the world looks at America. Thank you. Thanks for posting all those comments.
