I was watching the news last night and they were interviewing citizens around the world, and everywhere the perception was very positive. The only place where people weren't excited was the West Bank. The woman they interviewed there in a coffee shop said they have seen Presidents come and go, both Repub and Demo, and nothing changes. My point is positive attitudes are contagious, as are negative attitudes. Maybe the positive feelings and hope will be enough to kick start something good.
I hope.
