The USA Following the Election: Obama awakens hopes worldwide.
Newsletter November · December 2008
Dear Readers,
Exciting weeks are now behind us; Barak Obama has been, following a rigorous campaign, elected 44th President of the United States. As Germans, Americans, and Europeans of North Rhine-Westphalia, we followed this neck-and-neck race closely. With the help of experts and countless events, we analyzed the presidential candidates, meticulously examined pre-election America, and celebrated the result and implications this outcome means for America, Germany and Europe.
In this Newsletter you will read from the spectrum of opinions shared from Americans, Germans, specialists, and visitors of our events. I wish you an inspiring reading, a peaceful advent, and a happy holiday season.
Yours,
Eveline Metzen
