As the President of the United States probably has more impact on my existence than our own Prime Minister, I echo The Guardian newspaper when they suggested we in the UK should get a vote too. My guess is that John Kerry would win as on this side of the pond we like Americans but dislike their current choice of leader, well the electoral College choice anyway.
One thing that has struck me about this election is the lack of actual debate, what we have had is the two sides shouting at each other and the question coming down to personalities. Similar as some have pointed out to Russian and other ex communist country elections.
It is doubly ironic that due to the close nature of the race the only real winners will be the army of lawyers who may on this occasion decide the leader of the worlds remaining superpower.
