Obama Takes the Majority of States

After watching the different state's polls close and staying up until 4:30Am to see the out- come. One thing is clear the people of America will be heard. In many cases as predicted the polls so a record number of voter turn-out. I am suprized at how much race, gender and the age of voters made a difference in the election. We have just learned about "gender gap" in our first extra credit assignment , it's very neat to learn something and to see it immedaitly played out in politics. Back to Mr. Obama, it is clear that many of his supporters are just plain old tired of the normal self serving politican with big ties to corparate america. Not only has Obama's being, in the race increased the black voter's turn out, I believe it has done something no other presidental race has ever done. Given all people a person a vision for the future of politics. Change in the politics was needed a long time ago. We as Americans understand that, in the White House there needs to be changes that reflect America. That change being one of race, gender, integerity, age and polictical party balance. President John F. Kennedy, being elected was the last time America really had such a shake up in the White House!
