IF THE WORLD COULD VOTE

I came across this website that polls people across the world on how they would vote in the U.S. election if they could. The website was created by a few men in Iceland. It's independent, and without agenda. Only one vote is allowed per computer. So far there are votes from 100's of countries. Check out the results (and vote as well) here: www.iftheworldcouldvote.com

After the start of this website, the Economist also jumped on the band wagon and created a Global Electoral College: http://www.economist.com/vote2008/?source=hp...

In both cases, the world seems to be overwhelmingly in support of Obama. And although the world's vote does not count in the election tomorrow, it is hopeful to think that if Obama is elected, the damage that Bush has caused over the last 8 years to America's reputation could some how be salvaged.
