News should be news ?

Something totally different from what I normally post. I came across this picture in my way too big library of unprocessed images from our South-America adventure. I took this picture on the 17th of October, a couple of weeks before election day. We were stuck in Miami airport waiting for our next flight and CNN didn’t cover anything else beside the elections. The battle between McCain and Obama was still wide open (if it ever was). Both candidates were attending some benefit event and they both took turns making a speech. When Obama took the stand everybody gathered around the TV’s laughing at every not so funny joke. After the long lines at the customs (where I wasn’t allowed to take a picture) this was our second encounter of what we call “omg is this America” feeling. It was time to find a Burger King…

This picture would probably have more meaning if I had posted it when it was still news…
