Random bits & pieces after the election
David Letterman had it right on Wednesday night when he said “I think I speak for most Americans when I say, anybody mind if he starts a little early? Would that be a problem?”
David Geffen talked Obama – supporting him for president years before he actually ran, his disillusion with the Clintons, and Maureen Dowd’s column of February 21, 2007.
Will Smith appeared on Oprah’s show, talking about how he cried when Obama won.
Keith Collantine wrote an article noting the similarities between Obama and Lewis Hamilton, the world’s first black Formula 1 motor racing champion.
Gabriel just lauched MObama2012.com, because it will take more than 4 years to clean up the mess left behind by the previous administration.
BloggersMosaic.com, a website, which uses images of bloggers’ faces to link traffic to their own blogs made its own mark to put Barack Obama in the White House when it launched its own Special Barack Obama site prior to polling day.
James Miller has a created a Barack Obama Countdown clock you can add to your blog, which I fully approve.

I am a student who has been studying this presidental election for a semester. I have read Dreams from my Father, The Audacity of Hope and just about every article I could find on President elect Obama.”Yes we can” and DID!
One book that I read that I do not understand is What’s Wrong with Obamamania? It is written by Dr. Ricky Lee Jones. I was really confused about his position – on one hand Dr. Jones said he would support Obama in the next breath he says, “Obama is not what people think”. Can anyone out there give me their take on this book? thanks Margaret
