I know that here in the UK, nobody knows who Mitt Romney is.

At this point in 2008, everybody knew who Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton were.

I still don't know who Gordon brown is, and i don't care.

Not that you need to since he hasn't been Prime Minister for two years now.

But did anybody know who John McCain was?

Not really. It was the Democratic primary and Obama's Europe tour that did it for Obama and Hillary here.

The most popular UK celebrity right now is Kate Middleton.  Therefore, as an American I want Kate Middleton to run the UK government because she is the most famous UK celebrity I have heard from in the media. 

See, it is logically stupid for a non-American to think that foreign media coverage dictates anything in the US.  I doubt anyone in the UK cared about Al Gore in 2000 or Bill Clinton in 1992. 

Americans don't tell UK voters how to vote, I don't think UK people should tell Americans how to vote based on "liberal" foreign media outlets.  Its just incredibly insulting to think that foreign media coverage determines the outcome of US elections.
