Obama Aandika Historia Mpya!

 

Barak Obama ameshinda kwa kishindo John McCain na kuwa rais mteule wa 44 wa Marekani! Historia mpya imeandikwa.Historia ambayo wengi hawakusadiki kwamba inawezekana kuandikwa.

 

Katikati ya mbio za kuelekea kuweka historia katika Ikulu ya Marekani, Barack Hussein Obama, amepatwa na msiba mzito kwa kumpoteza kipenzi chake, Madelyn Dunham,86, nyanya aliyemlea utotoni.

 

Msiba huo ambao umemfanya Obama amwage machozi hadharani, kushikwa na huzuni kuu kiasi cha kushindwa kusema maneno mengi, aliutangaza mwenyewe akiwa mjini North Carolina.

 

Kutoka CNN: Barack Obama told supporters that "change has come to America" as he claimed victory in a historic presidential election. Sen. Barack Obama addresses a crowd of 125,000 people in Chicago, Illinois.

 

"The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year or even one term, but America — I have never been more hopeful than I am tonight that we will get there. I promise you — we as a people will get there," Obama said in Chicago, Illinois, before an estimated crowd of up to 240,000 people.

 

With Obama’s projected win, he will become the first African-American to win the White House. Obama had an overwhelming victory over Sen. John McCain, who pledged Tuesday night to help Obama lead.

 

"Today, I was a candidate for the highest office in the country I love so much, and tonight, I remain her servant," McCain said. McCain called Obama to congratulate him, and Obama told the Arizona senator he was eager to sit down and talk about how the two of them can work together. President Bush also called Obama to offer his congratulations.

 

Bush told Obama he was about to begin one of the great journeys of his life, and invited him to visit the White House as soon as it could be arranged, according to White House spokeswoman Dana Perino. Obama will be working with a heavily Democratic Congress. Democrats picked up Senate seats in New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Carolina and Virginia, among others.

 

Flanked by American flags, Obama told the roaring crowd, "This is your victory." "To those Americans whose support I have yet to earn — I may not have won your vote, but I hear your voices, I need your help, and I will be your president too," he said. Supporters in Chicago cheering, "Yes, we can" were met with cries of "Yes, we did." More than 1,000 people gathered outside of the White House, chanting "Obama, Obama!" Sen. Hillary Clinton, Obama’s former rival for the Democratic nomination, said in a statement that "we are celebrating an historic victory for the American people."

 

Going into the election, national polls showed Obama with an 8-point lead. Voters expressed excitement and pride in their country after casting their ballots in the historic election. Poll workers reported high turnout across many parts of the country, and some voters waited hours to cast their ballots. Tuesday marks the end of the longest presidential campaign season in U.S. history — 21 months. Obama, 47, will now begin his transition to the White House. He will be sworn in at the 44th president on January 20, 2009.
