I haven't been on DailyKos in a few months, maybe made a stray comment or two since the last time that I regularly visted the site. It's not so much that I've become apathetic; things have been really busy lately with so many things to take care of that I just didn't have the time. But something happened today that bugged me and I felt the urge to write a diary about it.

The Conservative Political Action Committee is holding their annual conference right now and one of the guest speakers was former United Nations ambassador John Bolton. He was very critical of Obama's foreign policies and began with this:

"If we get our act together, he is a one-termer."

As America goes, so goes the world. At least, that's what it used to be. It seems that the reception of America by the rest of the world has grown increasingly cool -- freezing, even -- over the past eight years. This is largely thanks to the Bush administration's multiple international transgressions that culminated into two prolonged wars whose justifications are suspect.

But on November 4th, the world celebrated with us in our election of Barack Obama as president. In fact, if the citizens of the world had had a vote, the election would have been settled as early as June and overwhelmingly in favor of Obama. Why the effusive support for a man barely known in our own country four years ago, much less the world?

Obama symbolizes the greatest hopes and aspirations of this country, and perhaps the world. He is the personification of the American dream and the characteristics that the world liked about us, proving that inherent special abilities coupled with hard work and determination can lead you to achieve anything.

By virtue of having someone like Obama as our President-elect, we're once again leading the world. And other countries are left to wonder ... "Where is their Barack Obama?"

I don't remember this being diaried yet but I'll delete this if someone points it out.

Yesterday, Fidel Castro spoke a little bit about the US election in his "Reflexiones del compañero Fidel".
