Hope for a change...

Today is a big day in US history as Barak Obama takes oath. I haven't seen such anticipation and media hype for anyone sworning in. I think the hype around this one has as much to do with the departure of a highly unpopular president as with the arrival of a charasmatic and popular Obama. Let's hope that this marks a change for betterment and the new president is more listening and less defiant and that he put his focus on attaining peace in the world.
