President-elect Barack Obama’s stunning victory represents a triumph of hope over fear. He now has two months to prepare for the huge job of translating that hope into improved conditions for jobs and health domestically for America.

He has a challenge similar to that faced by Franklin Roosevelt when he was elected and will need to bring in the equivalent for our times of the New Deal that Roosevelt brought in three quarters of a century ago.
