So “three guys from Iceland” have done something a lot more useful and interesting than set up financial derivatives to drive their country into bankruptcy. (Sorry, guys, I couldn’t the resist the reference. Also yes, I do understand that Icelandic men do many things other than engage in advanced casino capitalism.)
Long story short: These guys set up this site, which invites everyone around the world to register their own preference as between John McCain and Barack Obama. (HT: Massoud.)
Right now, the results are: Obama 87.4%, with 273,7087 votes, and McCain 12.6% with 39,330 votes. Voters have participated from 197 countries.
Pass this on! Vote!
In the country-by-country results, McCain has done ways best in the FYR of Macedonia, where he got 89.1% of votes cast. Then, there’s Burkina Faso, where he got two of the four votes cast.
Otherwise the world looks blue– including, a few countries tally 100% for Obama.
So maybe McCain would like a nice vacation after Nov. 4th in FYROM, where he can bask in the love…

Maybe this explains the possibility that Obama has taken large overseas contributions?
Since both campaigns will have to release donors today, it will be interesting. I do not support McCain, but I sure wish I shared your enthusiam for Obama. He has changed his stance way too many times to thrill me. Neither of them will be able to accomplish much of anything given the money situation. I wish Colin Powell had decided to go “out on a limb” when it mattered, with Iraq.
I agree with wrensis. But, question for Helena: how can you support Obama when he seems to be 100% for Israel’s continued harsh occupation of Palestine ? In the addresses I’ve heard from him he states total help for Israel and it’s freedom of all military acts it wishes. It seems like a foreign government having some authority in the U.S, government.
