First: John, love you. Please tell me how you can play such a complicated riff AND speak intelligently at the same time?! You're right, Obama was the right message to send at the right time.

Second: The U.S. didn't just collapse under Obama. It's been a long time coming -- Obama inherited a steaming pile of crap rolling down hill. The catastrophic "Let's Get Nothing Done" agenda promoted by both parties hasn't helped either.  Broaden your thinking, people. Our problems are systemic.

If Bush didn't destroy America, Obama certainly isn't going to. There are checks and balances in place for a reason to make sure any one man doesn't have too much power and that our country and government will go on. And McCain wouldn't have waved a magic wand and fixed the economy, it doesn't work that way.

And that really was a kickass jam he played here. 

[ladyfriday215]

Yeah he can have dual citizenship, can he not? I think that's what John Lennon did with his son Sean when Sean was born.

[EddieCat1971]

Keep your politics out of Music John.

Dear Mr Taylor,

Why don't you get you become a naturualized citizen of the US so you can vote in the US elections? It's not like you have to absolutely give up citizenship in England?

[silebon]

In 1980, Simon LeBon inherited a Duran Duran with no fame and with lack of a frontal vocal image... In just 2 years Duran Duran gained international fame and by 1984 had already 2 US#1's and millions of records sold. Vote LeBon!

Prez B is back for four more!!

[C. Malone]

No, he isn't He IS going to win again.

[hetzii]

Obama is a failure

[chrisbacos]

Ya know John if this is your adopted country you can become a dual citizen I think.
