The Economist is allowing the world to vote for U.S. president. Given that the president of the Empire affects life worldwide, this seems fair to me.
Of course, any online poll like this is utterly unscientific. It depends on who knows about it, which in turn depends on who reads a fairly conservative site like the Economist. Taking that into account, I note that as of today, the vote from Israel looks like this. So if you are schlepping to Florida to talk to your sweet grandmother about the elections, please let her know that so far, Israelis are voting 73-27% for “That One.” (In Hebrew: Hahu.)
I’ve heard of t-shirts that say “That One ’08.” I’d love one written in Hebrew!
