European bewails that they can't vote in our election
Opinion polls in a dozen European Union countries are similar and unambiguous: from the English to the Greeks, if Europeans voted, Barack Obama would be the next president of the United States. The same from the Pakistanis. A few weeks ago Fidel Castro wrote in the Communist Party newspaper [Granma] that although far from the ideal, Obama would be preferable to any of the others. We haven't yet heard from Ahmadinejad, but I wouldn't be surprised if he praised him, too. And in an Internet survey in China, in which 20,000 people had responded by Wednesday, 55 percent thought that he would win, 32 percent thought he wouldn’t and 13 percent found that to be a difficult question.
That's quite an Obama fan club.
