Description

In the first of two frames Barack Obama gives a victory salute as he becomes president after breaking the shackles of America's slave past. In the second frame he is shown almost naked with his foot locked in a huge shackle that represents 'expectation'. The expectations derive from the shambles left by President George Bush with very difficult military, economic and domestic problems.
