Democratic presidential hopeful, Senator Barack Obama, has a double-digit lead over Republican John McCain. According to the latest Newsweek poll Obama now leads McCain by a margin of 51-36 per cent, a big jump from the figures in May when he and McCain were tied at 46 per cent.
The Newsweek survey showed that only 14 per cent of Americans were satisfied with the direction of the country. More than 51 per cent were dissatisfied and indicated their faith in Obama with his message of change.
Barrack Obama made history as he became the first African American Presidential nominee for the US.
Meanwhile, his democrat rival, Senator Hillary Clinton ended her historic campaign for the presidency on June 7, telling supporters to unite behind Obama and closing a race that was as grueling as it was groundbreaking.
The former first lady, who had earlier declared herself the strongest candidate, gave Obama an unqualified endorsement and pivoted from her role as determined foe to absolute ally.
