The Obama Industry
Since the Americans are so pleased with themselves for making the choice that was obvious to everyone else in the world (and we congratulate them), here’s something that could help kick-start the US economy: the Obama industry. Sales of President-elect Barack Obama’s books and audiobooks, books about Obama, election memorabilia, T-shirts, mugs, and pins with Barack’s face on them, could keep retailers afloat in these hard times.

The disgruntled republicans are also churning out doom and gloom books against the president-elect. More good news for their economy. Link: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=obama+nation&x=17&y=21
(I just learned that Gat Andres was fluent in both French and Spanish and taught Spanish. That sounds pretty ‘High Street’ to me. He was one cool guy.)
