fact is, however, that in major democratic countries, big parties always have similar views on how things have to be done. the way i see it, the constant political arguments are mostly over trivial aspects to carry out a power struggle. in election times, they try to differentiate themselves from eachother to polarize the voters.
obama just represents the democrats. there is no way he can just act out of line and suddenly trigger some "change". without help of those powerful friends who endorsed him, where would he be today?

While I disagree about the powerful friends who endorsed him (cause give him credit; he has done an amazing job at raising money), I agree I don't expect major change. I simply expect a decent president. Major change is pure fantasy, and if he does pull it off, then wtf he used hacks.
