Barack Obama has become a new president of the USA. His inaugural address was realistic. During the election campaign he often said, “Yes, we can! Change!”.
Now he is the President, but the situation of the USA and the world has not changed at all. I had a sinking feeling after big merrymaking. The USA society has faced the serious crisis yet.
Barack Obama is an African-American. He has always said,“the USA is a one nation”, but I worry about the fact that many African- Americans have been very pleased.
What do white people think about a new president? Obama has to say,“the USA is a one nation” from now on. Racial prejudice is a kind of power of the nation.
Racism will continue in the USA, and I worry about the rift between white and black. Dow-Jones average dropped at the day of the inauguration ceremony.
The new President is headed for trouble, but he has to confront trouble. Japan and other countries should have new political contact with the USA.
