I have just posted the following on x5drivers.co.uk ( please excuse the pasting but my sentiments still stand as posted elsewhere minutes ago).
I appreciate there may be a variety of american political issues I may be unaware of but :
" Barack Obama's post victory speech - absolutely superb.
Took the time to watch it in its entirety today on sky news multiscreen.
I'm cynical and have little time for politicians but I found his speech truly moving - I hope he's as good as a leader as he is at speaking - he'd would have got my vote !
Nice to see someone speak apparently openly and passionately.
Far more convincing than many politicians I could name in the uk.
Genuinely pleased for him, his family and supporters.
History in the making today ! "
