The world has never watched any vote, in any nation, so closely. In country after country, polls show record-high fascination with the outcome of the U.S. elections this Tuesday. In Japan, according to one poll, there's more interest in the election than there is in the United States. The Voice of America, which broadcasts in 45 languages to a worldwide audience of 134 million, is seeing "unprecedented interest." In Pakistan there was so much interest in the first presidential debate, the VOA changed its initial plans and broadcast the next two as well. Indonesians and Kenyans, are of course fascinated and somewhat astonished by the fact that Barack Obama (http://www.newsweek.com/related.aspx?subject=Barack+Obama - broken link), a man with ties to both places, should be the front runner, and in Vietnam, there is much discussion over John McCain (http://www.newsweek.com/related.aspx?subject=John+McCain - broken link), a man who returned home from Hanoi in 1973 a wounded man and spent the rest of his life in dedicated service to the United States.
Europe is thrilled by the prospect that whatever happens this week it will mean the end of George W. Bush, and enraptured by the sheer spectacle of it all.
As are most Americans (and all Americans with a working brain)
Yes...his PR outreach team. Without them, he'd be down by 20 and switching from imported Iranian caviar to Gorton's fish sticks.
ROFL! True that!
The world hopes for its first president? Really! So, they're just going to play dead and allow Obama to run the world show??? Do you people really believe that?????
Wow, the Obamaphiles are in for a HUGE awakening. It will be pathetic to watch.
One of my dearest friends in the world, in Norway, is addicted to watching election coverage.
Says she was never really interested in politics at all until Bush started ****ing up the world. I have some friends in Germany as well, who are paying attention. The attention is really unprecedented.
Wow, so if the world is hoping for a President of the World then that would mean the world is wanting the Anti-Christ then basically right? lol
Nobama isn't smart enough to even run this country, if he's elected that will be proven.
