document.write("I saw and heard Mr Obama this morning with his victory speech, he is charasmatic and extremely intelligent.  I would definitley have voted for him and I think all Americans have voted themselves a wonderful leader, I wish that South Africans could say the same.  What I respect about Obama, all though he is an African American, he has not used the race card or the slavery issue.  All though it has been pushed down everyones throat by the media and the likes of people like Oprah, who just love to point out that their ancestors were slaves.  Obama has represented himself as an American who happens to be of a different colour, which to him is not that important.  Lets hope our politians can learn a thing or two about dignity and honesty from this wonderful man.  He is Americas answer to Madiba.<br />. Nadine");
