EDITORIAL

The day after the elections Barack Obama's victory in the race for American president proves that in a democracy, anybody - irrespective of their backgrounds, the color of their skin, their gender or their personal history - can aim for and eventually gain the highest political distinctions. His victory also proves that democratic systems have an endless vitality that allows them to be rejuvenated, that a senator with a limited reputation can convince the people with his political stance and can earn the highest spot on the political ladder.

EDITORIAL:AthensPlus

At last, elections It has become a cliche that the whole world is watching the US presidential election as if it concerned the leader of the whole planet. Whoever is elected on Tuesday will have George W. Bush to thank for that - not any of the presidents of the «Free World» of the previous decades. The 43rd president managed to make such a mess of the planet in the eyes of so many that his successor inherits the task (and embodies the world's hopes) of guiding the Earth toward a better direction. By default, the American president will now be the global leader.
