.......... Mr. Obama surely looks like a natural and impressive leader.

Hopefully he will be able to make a positive difference during this difficult times, not only in the US, but all over the world as well.

Yeah - wasn't sure why the purpose of having what appears to be many dozens of H-D Road King Police Specials with sidecars, but with no one riding in the monkey seat.
Maybe it is just to give them stability in case of black ice on the road - the pool in front of the capital bldg was frozen solid.

I think/hope/pray that he is able to make the sort of change that we need so much in this country, and by doing so, the world.

Congratulations with your new president - In my view he is not a new Kennedy, he is better by far!

greetings from a semi clouded north

I have congratulated my Michigan friends and now all of my R65 forum American friends. I was very taken as a young teenager with JFK. Now I can honestly say, based upon a more mature wisdom, that I have great hope for Pres. Obama. I am impressed. He has that something....brains and charisma together. Much like our long time ago PM, Pierre Trudeau.

Not nearly as impressive, I am somewhat distantly related to the former Premier of Quebec, Honore Mercier - He'd be my great-great uncle, I guess.
Of course, we're talking ~ 130 years ago...

Perhaps the purpose of the bathtub is to carry the rider's supply of donuts?  ;D ;D
