“Democrat Barack Obama wins the 2008 presidential election over John McCain, CNN projects, setting him up to become the first African-American to hold the nation’s highest office.”
This was the latest news I got from CNN few seconds ago and am currently watching John McCain acknowledging the defeat and giving congratulations to Obama.
Obama was said to address from a rally in Chicago, Illinois, later tonight.
Obama is now the first African-American to win the presidency.
Let’s watch out for the change he is saying for America.

Hillary Clinton is now out of the race as Barack Obama seals the Democratic nomination last night moving closer to his quest in becoming America’s first black president.
At an age of 46, Barack who’s a son of a Kenyan Father and a white mother from Kansas, will lead a major party into a huge campaign for the presidency as he got the magic figure of 2,118 delegates he needed to gain a famous victory.
The Chicago based Obama had only been a senator for less than 3 years when he launched his bid for the presidency.
