"If it were possible for me to get to the United States on my bicycle, I would." - Joseph Ochieng, a 36-year-old carpenter who celebrated in Nairobi's Kibera shantytown, one of Africa's largest slums.

"It's the beginning of a different era in the U.S. The United States is a country to dream about, and for us black Brazilians, it is even easier to do so now." - Emmanuel Miranda, a 53-year-old police officer in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

"No doubt that Obama will be better for the Americans and the whole world, and being elected after the horrible policy of George Bush is enough by itself. Whatever change he can bring to the world after this catastrophic polices would be great." - Hisham Abu Amer, 28, in the West Bank town of Ramallah.

"Today, reality in America has superseded fantasy. ... Americans have struck a deadly blow to racism all over the world. Americans have regained themselves and have regained the American dream. The picture of the U.S. that was disfigured by the Republicans in the past eight years fell from the wall today. The picture of the America we had in our minds has taken its place." - Prominent Saudi columnist Dawood al-Shirian.



Can any Republican really appreciate the extent to which their party has destroyed America's reputation? Do they even care? This is part of what we meant by "change." This is part of what we meant by "hope."
