Is Obama the answer?

This election will stand out in history not only because of Barack Obama's race but because of the allegiance of his adherents. A Presidential Candidate has never ignited such passion and involvement in the citizens of the United States. Watching the reactions of the crowd in Chicago as Obama gave his acceptance speech left me with no doubt that the next four years will work because of the intimate relationship forming between the people and their new leader. This relationship is vital for the United States to progress as a nation. For the past four years, the divide between the people and the government has continued to grow. This gap is a clear representation of the internal conflict that has been mustering within the U.S. This conflict has diverted the masses away from progressive thought to a state of constant bickering. 

Obama's presidency marks the beginning of a new era in America that began with the voice of its people.
