Watching Obama's inauguration. (It's 3am here XDD)

It's sort of bizarre. America...well for a long time it hasn't had a very good image in terms of discrimination, racism and such. And...now they have a black president. It's amazing, and it's also made me think.

Australia ne. No, we never had a civil war. But that was because it was genocide, not ( Read more... )

I would say it's quite similar to American history. We also killed many of the Native Americans. :'(

As for Obama being President, it doesn't really say much about racism in the US. There are still a good number of people that don't like him. =/

Yeah, it does seem to be quite similar ne. Geh, learning history always seems to depress me. XD;

Mmm, I guess there would be. He seems to be pretty popular though! And from what I've seen so far, he looks like he's going to be a great president. Well, better than Bush, which isn't all that hard really~ XD
