Even on the other side of the planet its hard to avoid The Greatest Show On  Earth™. Many of you will have a direct interest in the outcome of November’s Presidential election  because its your country. For the rest of us the significance of the outcome will simply manifest itself in a series of indirect consequences (wars, house prices, the gloooobal economy), so its fair to say that we’re interested.
