Is foreign media following our candidates now?
Are people in other countries watching this race as closely as we are?

1. Of Course
I predict that once the Candidate has been named there will be more support in the foreign press than from our own in the good old USofA. If the Dud gets one hatred point per person there are a lot more points overseas than at home - and every one of them earned.

3. We have a trigger happy WH with an ichy trigger finger
If I were they, I would be glued to the news and sending Euros over to the campaigns in plain brown envelopes.

4. Why don't you get "the economist"
and have a look at the coverage.

I think its more than fair their depth on this primary.

www.economist.com - detailed coverage
www.guardian.co.uk - daily coverage
www.thetimes.co.uk - daily coverage (even though its murdoch)
www.independent.co.uk - daily coverage also

The whole world gets to be fucked by america, but does not get to vote on it.... a sort of taxation without representation that doubtless americans would not tolerate... amazing how we can presume that others actually want to be dominated by an antidemocratic empire.

Of course the foreign press are watching.
