US elections, expectations and suspense

Tomorrow the world will be holding its breath as the curtain will fall after more than a year of political drama in the USA, through campaigning, exchange of accusations on the part of candidates from both sides.

The world is having more interest in these elections, not only because of candidates, which some see as heroes in a movie- one black, the other white, but also because of the US economic conjuncture which can drag the whole world with it if it is not redressed at the right time.
If black Obama wins, a glittering page will open in the history of the USA, concreting not only the dreams of real Americans who believes that America is for all Americans regardless of race or gender, but also those of the Founding Fathers whose objectives was to make the Union more perfect.

I am not Americans, but like the majority of people interested in these elections, there is a sense of suspense. Tomorrow, we’ll definitely hear,”the winner is ……….!” The loser will vanish from the spotlight. Let’s wait and see.
