Good read.

One thing he's wrong about is this:

"I’m married to an American and she’s very unlike Americans, but, she’s got that ‘international overview’ that Americans have, travelled and she knows Britain is brilliant because she’s been to so many other places."

I take it his wife is from a well-off family. Most Americans live paycheck to paycheck these days and seldom travel anywhere. The upper bourgeois classes travel, but to generalize that to just "Americans" gives a very false perception of the place as a whole.

I lived in South Brooklyn for 10 years and most of my neighbors (excluding all the Russians) seldom even travelled to Manhattan, seldom even left the neighborhood. And they all hated Obama. Hope they're enjoying the guy they wanted now that he's in power.
