The View From Your Election: Africa
A reader writes:
I'm an American living in Gabon, in west central Africa. After
reading what other international readers have written you tonight, I
thought I'd add that the Gabonese (and many Africans living here from
numerous countries across the continent) are euphoric at the thought
that a man with (as they call it) "African blood" could possibly become
president of the United States. There is a palpable sense of excitement
in the air, and as I sit here at nearly two in the morning watching the
US news from thousands of miles away I feel proud to be from the
country that made this possible. I can only begin to imagine what an
Obama election could mean for the entire world.
