ok, followup question....
do the foreigners here find american politics more fascinating than their own country's?
personally, ive always thought parliamentary systems are a tad boring. but, of course, im biased.
I find most politics fascinating, but size does matter
I know more about American and French politics than Albanian or Mongolian (but quite a lot about Angolan politics - don't ask why!)
FPTP is easier to illustrate, but I prefere a good oldfashioned parliamentary election were you see the results from every region a follow the change in seats between the 10+ parties
