When:November 5, 2008

Who: John Legend
What: Him talking about his album,his new kind of songs, and how he supports Barack Obama.
When: October 30, 2008.
Where: New York
Why: He was being interviewed by CNN.

John Legend speaks about how one person didn't want to buy his album because he supports Obama. This to me is amazing because only because of a candidate you won't support the artist you like before? Which is why all of McCain's supporters are ignorant, and this was a perfect example. Thus, John stays very positive and keeps doing what he is best at.

Who? Ken Imhoff
What? home-made Lamborghini
When? Nov 2008
Where? Wisconsin, USA
Why? fell in love with it during the movie Cannonball Run.

This is very interesting because a man put 17 years of hard work into a car he saw in a movie. He built it in his basement and had no way to bring it out and resorted to digging a huge hole under his house just to bring it out. It was also amazing how he didn't care what happened to his house with this quote, "I had no regrets about the drastic measures required to get my car out into the open air."

Who: President-elect Barack Obama
What: U.S. chooses 'change,' redraws electoral divide
When: November 4, 2008
Where: CHICAGO, Illinois
Why/How: Voters make Barack Obama crush opponent John McCain in both the electorial, and popular vote.

I'm shocked that Barack Obama won the title and everyone is just waiting for things to change as promised. He beat John McCain 349 to 163 in electoral votes, and 52% to 46% in the popular vote. Barack Obama is the 1st African-American to EVER win president of the United States of America.

"Obama Victory Sparks Global Cheers"

Who: Barack Obama

What: Many countries in the rest of the world celebrate over Obama's historic victory.

Where: America, butother countries such as Japan, New Zealand and Australia.

When: November 4th,2008

Why/How: People around the world threw parties and celebrations. They all had posters and such, rooting for Obama.

I think it's great that other countries were rooting for Obama, because that shows they have the same faith in him as we do, here in America. It also shows that since they already like our president, there will be fewer conflicts & wars with other countries.

Specially considerin the fact that he's black, it stands up for alot of black people. It shows how far we, as people can go in life. Ive got alot of respect for him towards what he's shown. As long as he can help this country and vanish away all these problems we have, then hes more welcome to me. Lets just take this the best way we can and hope he'll be that president this country deserves.
