WORLD REACTION IN PICTURES — Something really special has happened in the United States and, regardless of your political affiliation, I think it’s important to recognize this occasion.

I made this video because I was quite moved when I realized how many people from all over the world were celebrating Barack Obama’s victory. I think this is quite a testament to the ideals and beliefs upon which the United States of America were founded — things which seem to have been ignored during the last eight years. This election victory by Barack Obama symbolizes, for many, a renewal of all of that. I hope that makes sense. Anyways, enjoy the video!
