Honestly, Im so proud of them all.
As a foreign national living here I oftentimes shake my head in disbelief at things like my neighbors who have 2 hummers, of the constant presence of Ranch Dressing and syrup near food and domestic beers, but I'm seriously delighted that in a country where this man couldn't sit at the front of the bus 2 generations ago can now embody the dream that seemed for so long to be a cruel hoax, now reclaimed.
Even if he is technically a useless president, the popularity of his victory and what it represents is something that cannot ever now be lost. As Oblermann stuttered last night - politically, this is man-on-the-moon stuff, and it really is, and I feel like I'm watching it from the kennedy space center, wearing a thin tie.
