Are the Septics fair dinkum or do they just run Presendential elections to flush out the stupidest people they have? Are they the only ones who don't realize their entire democratic system is a joke and that the whole world is laughing at them? The amount of money spent on these things is obscene and should be stopped. The fact that it takes a year to decide who's even running, nevermind the 6 month lead up to the actual day is pathetic.
Do you reckon 20,000 people would show up, dressed like dicks and waving flags to cheer on John Howard (even at the height of his 'popularity')?
All this from the only self-professed 'only superpower'. If being self obsessed, over the top wankers is a superpower, then yes they certainly are.

Yeah, it's crazy how they have primaries and all sorts of crapola that takes the best part of 18 months to finally get two blokes to fight it out, and in many cases it may be against an incumbent anyway! Plus with non-compulsory voting perhaps only 25% of the country actually endorse the winner anyway.
Reckon American democracy is a bit strange, and they are wasting their time trying to export it to the Middle east, as in Iraq and Afghanistan, they seem to like their Ishlam too much. Just a matter of Shia or Sunni, and who is more 'hard-line' or not!
