Thanks to whoever it was on my flist that posted the link to this-- it's funny beyond most things I've seen this week regarding the election. I am cracking up reading it.

As for myself, when I heard about the letter campaign a week or two ago I was fairly offended; not to the point of cussing people out in responding letters, but nevertheless pretty offended. Anyone is welcome to move here, then you'll have a right to have your say.

Another part of me is laughing my ass off at the idea that they were so naive they actually expected this to have a significantly positive result. Whoever first thought of this campaign definitely does not understand American political culture and probably has never lived here for a long period of time.

I have to agree that's one of the best replies ever.

Honestly. I can't imagine the British would be too keen on us telling them how to vote!

I have to play a bit of a devil's advocate here. I think that the global public should be able to be involved -- even if it's just through some silly letter-writing thing. With America being one of the greater world powers & not afraid to use that power, other nations & their citizens have a lot at stake in this election. Four more years of Bush would affect a lot more people than just Americans.

Such a plan would totally backfire on them anyways. It is a bit presumptious but it would also be pointless because really...such an action would certainly spur the undecided to do the opposite of what the 'outside influences' wanted them to do anyways.
