I have a MyBO (My Barack Obama) account.
I have been very aware of my thoughts about America since Mr. Obama was elected President. Specifically; before Obama – not a lover of America. As a matter of fact, I would be more likely to cringe and dive for the remote if I caught a glimpse of Fox (that would only happen by accident). Going to USA for holidays or even long week-ends? No thanks! Why? Couldn’t tell you. – just never had the desire.
Fast forward to November 4th.
I want to move to America. Ok, well maybe not move, but I have fallen deeply in love with the USA. I look at their geography and I see beauty, probably for the first time. I watch American talk shows and I find myself nodding in agreement, next long week end – we’re planning a trip to San Fran. Why? What has Obama done for outsider perception of the US? I am by far the only one experiencing these sentiments. I have been talking to a number of people about this… their answers are almost verbatim what I noted above.
It is going to be very interesting to watch how the next 4 years unfold under President Obama’s watch. It is going to be mesmerizing to see what impact his social media campaign will have on the planet. What will Barack do with his online following? Will they be utilized over the next 4yrs? Will they be responsible for creating a paradigm? Changing the way we see, use and engage with social media? I’m thinking this is going to be where the path we’ve been on, bends.
