From the content of your posts you seem to care about American politics and not Australian in about the same ratio as most Americans.
I don't mention Australian politics on here because nobody except the Australians would be interested. I doubt if even one in 100 Americans could name Australia's current Prime Minister.

Non-Americans care about US politics because your aggressive foreign policy directly affects our countries. I guarantee you'd be more interested in Australian politics if we started wars and dragged your country into it.
