Congratulations to Barack Obama!! The election of the new US President marks the historic change in the US Presidency. 

Obama won by securing 349 seats against McCain who was voted with 162 votes. The required numbers to win was 270 which Obama won with wide margin. With this win, Obama must quickly appoint and fill up the job in the administration with Illinois Rep. Rahm Emanuel as White House chief of staff as the first appointment.

Congrats again to Obama!

Now, the real question. When US sneezes, the rest of the cold catch cold. When Obama in the office, how will he impact the rest of the world? So far based on historical data, Republicans normally engaged in war just like what Bush Sr and his son did. And there are less wars during Democrats’ helm. So what will Obama do this time holding the Democrats hat?
