I think most people are happy the election is over with and don't want to talk about it anymore. I was getting sick of hearing about it. 2 years is too long to campaign.

I don't think most people in the world understand how the U.S.A. system works. The president does not dictate the politics of the country. He is only one of 3 arms of the legislature so any policy he makes must be agreed to by a majority of the other houses. One man cannot change the country for the better or the worse by himself. He must work with everyone to get consensus.

With all 3 branches coming under majority control of the party that created the sub prime mortgage crisis I see nothing but bad coming out of this. It will probably take 25 years to clean up the mess that will be left behind. :(

You're never going to get everyone to agree on something like politics!
