11/4 is bigger than 9/11

It's my opinion that this election is the official beginning of a new era for the US on a social/cultural/moral level. I think we have, like our European counterparts, entered into the post-Christian, post-Anglo, post-modern era. O is the first Prez elected by pomo's and an age has passed. The WWII and Vietnam era is over. Enter the age of Web 2.0 and the New Media and the man who leveraged that technology and the hopes of a disconnected pomo political block into a new political powerhouse.


I say post-Anglo cuz 95% of blacks and 66% of Hispanics voted for O. They're the new voting power, not whites. The Hispanic influence will only grow and blacks will be increasingly active due to the emergence of O. He's the great black/brown hope. I realize that may sound racist. It's not. At least not when I say it. I think it's a good thing.

9/11 propelled us to this point as the politics of the past bore their bitter fruit for all to see.

This shift has been going on for 10-20 years in our culture. It's now official and at the top of the power hierarchy and will shape our culture.

Re: 11/4 is bigger than 9/11

What you have to remember is this, if we believe the Bible & the Book of Revelation that there will be a One World Government & that prophecy will be fulfilled before our eyes,
we need to realize that it will happen no matter who is in power.

Yes things are changing & I believe we are very close to the coming of the Lord!

I see it & I feel it in the spirit!

post-anglo is nonsense. Obama could not have won without independent, young, educated, democratic white vote. stop trying to make this a racial election. Polls show that age was more of a factor than race.

I agree with you completely... unless you are thinking that this shift is a good thing... in that case I disagree with your take on this move being a positive thing.

I do agree that the direction we have been going for the last good while is a bad one but this is not an improvement IMO.

We are marching onward toward complete governmental control of our lives and socialistic manipulation of the people, the economy and our lives.

Basically what I see is that the bad direction we were headed has just gotten it's license to drive.

Both of you completly missed my point. I am not supporting Obama. I didn't vote for him, nor am I particularly happy about his election.

I just think that the rest of the country is figuring out what we on the edges have already figured out....America is truly becoming an ethnic and cultural melting pot and the white hand of power has lost it's grip on power.

I was only commenting on the reality of the change and it's implications on our culture. That's not a political or racial observation as much as it is a cultural one. I just think this political event is a major indicator of a bigger, deeper underlying cultural change.
