Note: American people might feel to blow the different kind of wind from the past eight years. I also felt to change something at this election yesterday. However, there are a lot of tough problems no matter who will address in the U.S. I think that he already has a heavy cross before becoming the next president formally. I want to watch his future approach to the problems.
WOW. YOU PICKED A TOUGH TOPIC BUT GOOD FOR YOU FOR LEARNING ABOUT THIS.
CAN YOU EXPLAIN WHAT YOU MEAN BY “TO BLOW THE DIFFERENT KIND OF WIND”?
I’m Azumi. I feel to blow new, fresh and hopeful wind now in the U.S. because Mr. Obama will be the president. Under Mr. Bush’s administration, American people could not expet that U.S. had changed better. In the past eight years, U.S. seems isolated from other countries because it had put it’s own profit before everything else and had not tried to cooperate with other countries. And it has a lot of problems in the country. American people hoped to change that the U.S. to get better. They felt that Mr. Obama could blow such a hopless, disappointed and dark mood away. And they believe that he might lead the U.S. to the better way in four years. I feel such a kind of wind while I live in the U.S.
