"A New Era for America"

E. J. Dionne Jr., The Washington Post | November 5, 2008

Americans have proven that they are more united than ever, by clearly electing Obama the next president of the US as well as by chosing a strong Democratic Congress. ++ With regard to the political legacy of George W. Bush, Obama is facing the toughest presidency of all times. ++ At this point in history he can “reshape the country's assumptions, change the terms of debate and transform American politics.” ++ If Obama sticks to his progressive but also pragmatic sense of political leadership, he will be able to lead America out of its crisis.
