Just to add my two cents:
Chinese Pussy asked a question about how a political issue in one country will affect the economy of another because she was concerned about it.
She also expressed her feelings on a war and on a political leader she has her doubts about, since these are issues that do affect her, despite the fact that she had no say in the election.
The fact is, that America being pretty much the most powerful country in the world, the politics there affect everyone, but unlike the Americans we have no say. If only it were a case of 'If you're not American mind your own business' but American politics is everyone's business, whether the rest of the world like it or not, so it's perfectly natural for us all to be concerned about the impact the election has on our lives.
In Britain all we can do is try to vote for a leader who won't behave like America's lap dog in the next General Election, rather than the spineless deceiver who currently asks 'How high?' when America says 'Jump'. If however, Tony Blair remains in power, we too, have another 4 years of George Bush's rule.
