Obama: Prophet of Perpetuity?

Call me a cynic, but I don't have faith in Obama at all, at least not until he proves me wrong. Already he has appointed primarily a lot of "Clintonites" and seems to be on the ball with big business. Change we need? So far doesn't seem like it. But only time will tell, as of this day (and in 4.5 hours as of this writing) he's going to be sworn in as figurehead #44. Now, I understand things can only get better...hopefully...everything is still up in the air. We'll see in 100 days if anything has been changed. Of course, here's my definition of change: universal health care, federal aid for an ailing working class, the abolition of the WTO and IMF, and an increase in jobs. It's a pretty tall order but hey, a guy can dream.
