In Some Nations, People Look to Obama as President of the World


elections.foxnews.com
Barack Obama's election on Tuesday set off international celebrations and ignited a fervor for the United States that has been unseen since the days immediately following the September 11, 2001, terror attacks.

To some observers, the international reaction has elevated America's president-elect to an unparalleled post: president of the world.

In Kenya, where Obama's father was born, a national holiday was declared on Thursday. In Indonesia, children danced at the school Obama attended when he was a young boy, embracing him as much for what he represents abroad as for the policies he advocates at home.

It will be interesting if he leads the charge to form a global currency and central bank in the wake of the financial crisis.

And if someone can trace the Obama clan of Kenya to ties with the Solomonic dynasty of Ethiopia, then even as skeptical as I am of the whole idea I will be fairly concerned.

It will be interesting to see what happens. It may turn out to be nothing but you never know. Please explain in more detail about this Solomonic dynasty from Ethopia you are speaking about....I have only read about King Solomon in the Bible, is this the same one you speak about?

I have heard that too...for years. "president of the free world"

I may not have voted for Obama but do want him to succeed, but this is getting ridiculous. He isn't the second coming, no one is.

I'd humbly suggest that if you want world opinion, you don't read Fox News.

BBC World Service "Have Your Say" - The U.S. Election

SkyNews: Photos from around the world regarding the U.S. Election NOTE: SkyNews is owned by News Corp... just like Fox News.

ITV News complete election coverage

It's not all pretty... Here's the english language forums for Pravda. Search for the word "Obama".

How Pravda reported the win.

OpEd from Haaretz

Tehran Times

Don't read the articles... click around... find the comments and forums... read those.

I dunno... what do you think the world is saying about Obama? What ever the "world" thinks... it's not what Fox News is spouting.

The Solomonic Dynasty is the royal house of Ethiopia and traces itself all the way back to King Solomon of Israel, which also means back to the House of David. The House of David lineage would be very important for anyone making a claim of being a biblical messiah.

The economic mess created by 8 years of Bush and 6 years of GOP Absolute rule. What did the Dems pass that cause this? They can't pass any thing because Bush vetoes every thing. He went 6 years signing every thing then suddenly vetoed every thing. So what did the Dems pass that caused this economy mess? Also, MCCAIN SUSPENDED HIS CAMPAIGN TO PASS THE BAILOUT! Yeah, that really helped...

Hey blondie, Obama passed the bailout as well as a Democratic majority in Congress. Perhaps you forget those facts? Of course you did, you want to spin anything and everything you can to favor Obama.

Also, Congress had the Democratic majority for the past two years and enough votes to override a veto. Truth is, they didn't care enough to do anything.

The President, BUSH, said pass it or America would die. Hmm, scare tactics, why does that sound so familiar? Oh that's right, "Pass the Patriot Act or America will die! Vote for me in 2004 or the gays will be treated as equals!" More scare tactics... Also, Obama didn't stop his campiagn, McCain did. McCain attacked Obama for not supporting it. McCain lead the charge of getting it passed or "America will collapse". Also, personal attack much?

And about 56million are calling Obama the N word. Fortunately the rest of the world don't think like the GOP. Not even McCain was able to get these people to stop being racists. When McCain was giving his speech they all booed when he said Obama. When Obama mentioned McCain people clapped and cheered.
