Now... Barack Obama is the president of America. We talked about him in school. He is the first black American president. And Barack Obama even stayed in Indonesia when he was a child! Many people think Barack Obama is very intelligent.
At 20 January 2009, America celebrated the inauguration of Barack Obama, after that Obama gave a speech in front of the capitol. But, he didn't say anything about Palestina and Israel. Many people are disappointed because they think it's a big problem. Why do you think he didn't say anything?
For the inauguration, many people came from various territories (states), and millions of people were there.
Now... fantastic... Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle Obama, also is a new leader.
In the cabinet of Barack Obama, he chose the smart people that have intelligence. For example, Steven Chu is the Minister of Energy... Joe Biden is the Vice President, Tom Daschle he is the Secretary of Health and Human Services. The president chose some women for seats in the cabinet also, for example Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State.
Barack Obama has a lot of support from the society and other countries. Many people think Barack Obama can change the world... with his new position, Barack Obama says about the global economy that he will do anything for to handle the negative impact of economic crisis that is affecting many people. One of these is lowering taxes and it can help the American society and other countries.
OK... that's all about the cabinet of Barack Obama.... Tell us what you think and we'll come back again with a new post.
Bye bye!

Hi Mona and everyone in class X-2. Hillary Clinton visits Indonesia today. It's her second country as Secretary of State, before even China. Maybe because Indonesia is the biggest Muslim country in the world, and maybe because Obama went to school there.
ReplyDeleteI was just wondering what you all thought of her and her visit. Is Indonesia a bit more important now?
