WORLDMEETS.US: Headlines from Britain On Obama’s Victory

First out of the gate are the British – as always. This is what WORLDMEETS.US has posted thusfar:

This editorial from Britain’s Guardian is an unadulterated congratulation to the American people. It says in part:

“They did it. They really did it. So often crudely caricatured by others, the American people yesterday stood in the eye of history and made an emphatic choice for change for themselves and the world. … Today is for celebration, for happiness and for reflected human glory. Savour those words: President Barack Obama, America’s hope and, in no small way, ours too.”

From the London Times, U.S. Correspondent Gerard Baker talks of the history made last night- and the history that must be made to address some of the planet’s most intractable problems.
