In his own party, there are still many who favored Hillary Clinton and will need a lot of convincing to give their hearts and souls to Obama.
As for the GOP, well, in terms of the popular vote, John McCain got almost as many as Obama–enough to indicate that the divisions in this country still run deep.
Obama has his job cut out for him. Now is when we will all really learn whether he is the right man for the job or not!
It is very encouraging the fantastic change that you President elect Mr.Barrack Obama had been able to make, even before your overwhelming victory on the 4th November. You have been able to heal past wounds and bring the whole nation together. In your acceptance speech you made it clear that there is no black America or a white America , blue States or red States, but there is only the United State of America. That call had been heard and well received. To-day even before the Presidential Election was over you made history making the American dream come true.
As I write this you have 200 electoral votes, to 85 for Senator McCain, and going by numbers there is no doubt which way the votes are going and by the end of the day you will be the 44th President of USA.
In anticipation I Congratulate you President Barrack Obama, I wish you, and your wonderful family, all that is best and may you have the strength to see through all Changes you have in mind to make America a country of hope for all Americans without distinction, and hope for the developing nations of the world.
We pray, and wish you strength to find American economy back on its feet soon….
Asides, from that I urge you to please help developing Countries to progress by supporting them, and helping them rid themselves of barriers that have hampered their progress.
I being of Sri Lankan origin I cannot help but speak to you of the terrorism in Sri Lanka..
The Bush Administration did not understand the Sri Lanka’s reason to opt for a military solution to eliminate terrorism. The Government of Sri Lanka is not fighting a war against the Tamils, as those who take side with the terrorists may try to make you believe.
A group of Tamil youths took up arms way back in 1980s against the Government, claiming a part of the country to set up an Independent State for Tamils. For nearly three decades they terrorised the north and east of Sri Lanka, killing all those who opposed them including many Tamil intellectual, politicians, and innocent men and women mostly by blasting “suicide human bombs”.
The Government’s call for them to negotiate a peace settlement was rejected, over and over again demanding nothing less than the set up of a separate Tamil State. Having failed to negotiate, the Government was forced to resort to a military solution. The Government forces are carrying out successful military action against the terrorists, and is in the process of eliminating terrorism from Sri Lanka for good.
The forces that want to set up a separate Tamil State, including large numbers of Tamils who have settled down in foreign countries, such as USA, Canada, Australia, France etc, called the Tamil diaspora, help the terrorists, by providing them with financial support.
They accuse the government of attacking the Tamils, which is false propaganda to win over the sympathy of the International Community. The government forces are risking their lives in attacking the terrorists, avoiding the civil population , who are being used as human shields by the terrorists.
In that process the soldiers face innumerable dangers because of the booby traps and anti personal mines set up by the terrorists. The government of Sri Lanka has not neglected its responsibility to the Tamil people, and supply consumable articles and medicine on a weekly basis with the help of the UN Office in Sri Lanka. The Government is also preparing a package of political devolution to help the Tamil Community to integrate more firmly into the national fabric.
Please protect the sovereign State of Sri Lanka, without being tricked by a pro-terrorist Tamil Group in America, who has found access to you calling themselves “Tamils for Obama”. They accuse the government of Sri Lanka as carrying on a genocide against the Tamils. This is an extremely dangerous racist group, posing as wealthy Tamils settled down in America, working hand in hand with the terrorists in Sri Lanka. The terrorists in Sri Lanka calling themselves the LTTE ( Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam), is currently proscribed as a terrorist organisation by 31 countries in the world.
We pray you President, to disassociate with the group who has found access to you calling themselves ” The Tamils for Obama”. Please remove them from your list of contributors for the election campaign. And before any action by word or action is made against the Government of Sri Lanka, please consult the President of the Sovereign State of the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka.
