I don't get why everyone puts him down before he's even started??? that's what I wanna know.

I don't critisize Obama, I don't know his policies and I'm not directly affected by his actions, so I don't like or dislike him! All I've done is state what I've seen. I walk into a bar with a couple of friends and see FRENCH people cheering and shouting things along the lines of "Finally, we have someone that will change the world for us and make it a better place". I saw, okay, whatever, they're excited and they're proud to be part of something big and are cheering it on! Then I go home, watch the news, and I see people all over the world do these things. You get People in Japan wearing Obama T-shirts and cheering him on, and you get people in Thailand doing the same etc when they don't seem to celebrate nearly as much, or be concerned nearly as much with their own issues!
As for Messiah, I didn't say anyone used that word. I described how many people I've seen and spoken to have regarded him as!
I also hope Obama does a good Job! I hope every leader in the world does a good job for their country and people. I would hope nothing less for anyone. We are all humans and we all deserve stability and food on the table at the end of hard days work! I hope Obama does that for America. BUT I will not go ape over him simply because he's supposidly different to Bush!
