Not everyone is upset Obama was re-elected

Take Vladimer Putin for instance:
Russian leader Vladimir Putin sent President Obama a telegram congratulating him for winning a second term on Wednesday, while the country's prime minister mocked Mitt Romney's aggressive stance against the Kremlin. 
“Overall the Kremlin welcomes the news of Barack Obama's victory in the elections,” Putin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told the Interfax news agency. “We express hope that the positive beginnings in bilateral relations and in international cooperation between Russian and the United States, in the interest of international security, will develop and improve.”
Can you say.... "This is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility,"....President Obama can.

Ah yes those praises keep coming in for Obama:
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hong Lei told reporters that President Hu Jintao and his soon-to-be-successor, Vice President Xi Jinping, look forward to working with Obama  to advance Sino-American relations. 
"Maintaining a steady, healthy and stable development of China-U.S. relations serves the fundamental interests of the two countries and the two peoples as well as peace, stability and development of the Asia Pacific region and beyond," said said Hong Lei. "China is ready to work with the U.S. side, look to the future and make continuous efforts for fresh and greater progress in the building of China-U.S. cooperative partnership and deliver greater benefits to the two peoples and people of the world."
Team Hugo Chavez chimed in as well:
On the streets of Caracas, some said they worried that a win by Republican Mitt Romney would have brought a much harder line against leftist leaders such as their own President Hugo Chavez, and that they hoped another four-year term for Obama would bring relatively peaceful U.S.-Latin American ties. 
“The other guy would have cut off relations with Venezuela,” said Cesar Echezuria, a street vendor selling newspapers emblazoned with front-page photos of Obama celebrating. “It would have been a disaster for Venezuela if Obama had lost.”

Can there be any doubt now that Obama is a Marxist/Socialist? I think not. The young people of the US even buy souvenirs of communist/socialist icons with Che Guevara T-shirts, Mao hats, and merchandise with the universal peace symbol or AK-47 rifle on it. The acceptance of this kind of merchandise shows the level of conditioning that young people have to show they're "cool." Yet, they have no frame of reference from which to judge their acceptance. No one has lived under a totalitarian regime. Imagine their shock someday when their favorite radio stations & iTunes website is playing this anthem.
