it finally happened.

We now have an african/american President. This will be an interesting 4 years.

i am from africa and the crowd here seems to think that he will be more pro africa, i hope they will not be disapointed.

Well i wish him all the luck in the world cos that is one job I would seriously hate to have...

He looks young and fit just now like Tony Blair did when he became PM..lets see how he ages when he takes over !!!

Good luck to him

I think it's great news - and a huge step forward.... just like President Palmer on 24 - life imitating art!!

so true - poor tony looked so ill towards the end. I wouldnt wish the pressure/stress on anyone!

Its amazing that a black man has become president but I wish they would speak more on the reasons why - not the colour of his skin; more that he has shown he has the beans to do the job well

that remains to be seen, claudia. you already know, beautiful, he's gonna be uder serious scrutiny. he won't be able to squeeze cheese without it being in the tabloids.

and, yeah, pete, the name is a far cry from george washington.
