Nearly sixty years ago there a book The Ugly American which was not at all a favourable picture of Americans outside USA. What good has it done to the world? The world does not change so easily: the evil and arrogance inherent in the dominant US psyche remains unremoved but manifests in a new way, with a new strategy after such a massive exposure though a very huge lot of it still to be revealed. The nausea it has created will subside after sometime and will still haunt people.
I had written “Bush administration will leave for the next administration a huge debt and deficit problems. Someone should go into the history of USA and see if there existed parallels to this —Democrats succeeding Republicans in elections after a big financial disaster as happened when FDR came during the period of depression 1929 and Bill Clinton, the
Democrat, succeeded the senior Bush.”
Marisha Sharma who went through the history of election results of USA has established that it has not been the case in every case of financial fiasco. But this time, it was serious enough for US voters to think of throwing out Republican rule to save themselves from the legacy of many wild Bushfires of the last eight years. That has happened. The main issue was economic, not racial.
Yet, it is unbelievable that USA has made racism not an issue this time. It surprised me as during my five tours in private conversations with non-whites, the impression I had was racism would never die in USA till the white population was reduced into a minority which is bound to happen at the end of the twenty first century. Europe is on the way to becoming Eurabia and the white women wanting to enjoy life and not produce children will allow non whites to swamp their countries with their fast increasing population.
But this election of USA interested me like so many in world outside USA. After the general elections of 1977 in India, it is the US presidential election of 2008 which thrilled me most. In 1977 we were interested in the fall of Indira Gandhi, identified in many minds of lovers of democracy, with a devil destroying democracy.
In the US election of 2008, Obama got identified with an angel who would deal a mighty blow to racism USA is well known for. To the average voter he perhaps represented the man of the hour who would rescue USA from the economic meltdown , largely the result of bad Republic rule under Bush, the dullest president USA ever had. Will the result come out in time ? We had the experience and memory of the Bush Gore election of 2000.
Then there was a report in the Times of India.
“It’s not a perfect election, much less a perfect democracy. There are so many bugs and flubs in the system, and such scattershot voting procedures, that this correspondent keeps renewing the suggestion he first made during the disastrous Bush-Gore fiasco in 2000: Please, outsource your elections! Still, it’s better than what many other countries have— or don’t. And India is no perfect model either. US polls: ‘Oh what a long strange trip it has been’
(4 Nov 2008,, Chidanand Rajghatta)
Clearly Rajghatta meant without saying that India, conducting world’s largest elections has an unbeatably remarkable record in this respect.
Finally, it will have to be said that Rowe proved right.
• Rove.com — Polls point to big electoral win for Obama: Karl Rove, the man who
masterminded President Bush’s political career, says his final forecast for the presidential race points to a 338-200 Electoral College victory for Democratic nominee Barack Obama over Republican John McCain. That would be “the largest electoral margin since 1996,” he writes.

Yes we teach sound astrology and get it tested on hundreds of horoscopes and that is why the Jaimini astrology we teach is a tested version, not garbled eight karaka perversion and charakaraka substitution etc. Test it, test it and test it before accepting it.
Who predicted
Livina, the Russian women and Col AK Gour working on Tula lagna of Obama predicted his victory confidently and Col Gour rejected the Makar lagna horoscope for his own sound astrological reasons. Marisha Sharma developed cold feet after I decided to put on the website her comprehensive piece on Biden which was more convincing, there being no doubt about his horoscope. Earlier, Col. Gour too had done it. Marisha wrote to me:
“You’ve actually put Joe Biden online on journalofastology.com!! I should be conveying my heartfelt thanks but to tell you the truth, the moment I saw it, to put it in my desi language, “meri sitti-pitti gum ho gai”!! This needs lots of courage and I’m now very scared. Its one thing to be proven wrong alone or with a group of familiar people, but to go wrong in front of the whole wide world- its very scary”
Now when Biden has won she will remember my advice to her:: do not be afraid of predictions failing but be afraid of intellectual dishonesty, a common failing of website and television astrologers like the newspaper astrologer columnists.
Then a prayer.

Entire town in south India praying for Obama win
By - IANS
......The economy of the knitwear garment exporting town of Tirupur in Tamil Nadu, almost 400 km from state capital Chennai, is driven almost entirely by exports to more than 35 countries around the world. But, as is to be expected, the exporters’ biggest market is the US. The slowdown in the US and European markets since the early part of this year, a fluctuating rupee vis-a-vis the dollar and several local problems saw the town’s exports in fiscal 2007-08 dip for the first time since the early 1980s.
Has USA covered itself with glory ? No. If at the end of the present term in 2012-13, Obama does not fall a victim to the bullet of a white assassin, history will have to bestow glory on USA. That is a dream, a fatuous hope for many. Therefore one should work closely to establish the correct lagna of Obama.
And Obama will have to face a terribly disturbed USA internally and terrorist attack . Do you know why ? Work on it astrologically. And finally there was more eloquence, elegance and a sense of gratitude in the tears rolling down the cheeks of Rev.Jessie Jackson than all the speeches and writings of us all. When I saw him on CNN I was moved.
