You should be aware that Britons do not elect the Prime Minister. So of
course we will not be electing anyone, even a Scot, to the position.

It is very difficult to ignore Tony's post, especially because its
misleading.

Obama will not change America- if he is the new president the change =
already
happened.
I don't see England voting for an African or Indian primeminister in the
near future. It will happen eventually,
but only because demography will force that.

But that, of course wasn't Tony's point. I think that Tony is telling =
us
that he hopes that the US will join now=20
the utopian Neo Marxism of the Hard Left. It is more likely that the
presidency will change Obama
in that case. Although I have to admit that the fact that Obama was =
elcted
proves that there is something in Marxism after all...:-)

Crystal, don't take what Tony wrote so personally, it is Le Bon Ton in =
his
town.
