Right now we are hours away from knowing who will be the next president of the United States. A lot has been said and a hundred books can be written, but what I saw on social network site Facebook today really brought cold chills over my back. It actually made me very emotional. It made me proud to be part of this new generation that has an opinion and that has no problem to share it with the whole world. If Obama wins tonight, he will have to thank the young generation. A generation that has been given one of the best tools history has ever provided: the internet. 10 years ago this would not have been possible, our opinion would have been formed by privately (read: politically) owned radio and television stations. Now we have the power to reach millions...let's make sure nobody will ever take that away from us again.

if the american elections were to be a crappy action movie, but still watchable, obama'd be steven segal and mccain the guy who took his lands and killed his dog.

A lot of respect for McCain as a person...just running for the wrong/old establishment.
