President Barack Obama and England's Prime Minister Gordon Brown news conference

What a wake-up call! I first must state that I was again proud of our African-American President as he addressed the world officially for the first time in his Presidency. Next to President Obama's meeting tonight with Queen Elizabeth, which will occur during a decent hour for all Americans to see live -- "first run", this address properly introduced an African-American as the world leader.

President Obama aced the first task, and moreso filled with pride Africans throughout the world. What a proud moment that brought front and center the reality that our African-American President really is the Worlds' Leader. The final touch which began at 11pm eastern time on November 4th. 2008 when Senator Obama officially became President-Elect Obama, and also at 12:05p on January 20th. 2009 as President-Elect Obama became President Obama. Today, President Obama was crowned President of the free world by King-ly addressing people internationally as the New World Leader.

President Obama and Prime Minister Gordon Browns' new conference this morning in the 5 o'clock hour est (2am pst) ran roughly an hour. The Presidents' trademark calmness, elegance, and preparedness was again evident throughout the address and the Question and Answer session that followed, with both England and American top News organizations addressing the two leaders, went quite well and was an impressive session.

The President emphasized the interconnected World Economy, allied forces against rogue groups specifically in Afghanistan and Pakistan, realities of stimulus plans occurred in America and other countries, nuclear proliferation, improving import/export ratios, and ended speaking of his wife's difficulties with her first meeting later tonight with the Queen of England.

What I noticed in body language of both the Prime Minister and our President is that while President Barack Obama was calm and powerfully addressed the world, it seemed as if Prime Minister Brown was quite nervous, unstable, and even intimidated by the Presidents' presence.

What few may have noticed too was that both President Obama and Prime Minister Brown began the news conference addressing one another as Prime Minister Gordan Brown and President Barack Obama. At the end of the news conference they addressed one another as Gordon and Barack.
