As a US citizen from birth (married to a Bong who has Indian citizenship), one of the things I am most happy about is the fact that so many people, American or not, and from very diverse backgrounds, are sharing the feelings of excitement, inspiration, and renewal Obama has generated. As you rightly say, "I don't see it so much as a "crisis", more of a "multiple identity" which I feel enriches the individual as well as the country." That richness of cultural identity is one of Obama's great strengths too!maitrarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00844340000411944242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-46550036906543787832009-01-22T13:29:00.000-05:002009-01-22T13:29:00.000-05:00Very well written.

Similar emotions hit me at different points of time in this country and it all came out in a deluge when I gave up my passport and got me a new nation. However it was all worth it when I cast my vote this past election and I am inching towards the point where the Star Spangled banner also gives me goosebumps. I think I will balance.<BR/><BR/>p.s.
