I just don't see it happening. Like I said, I could be wrong, but I don't think Americans would tolerate it. At least not at this point in time.

Osama Bin Laden seems to have amazing leadership skills. Maybe we should elect him or somebody like him.
It's not national pride to take part of xenophobia.

Don't forget that the USA are still, at least technically, a democracy. As such, if the good people of America decide to elect someone from another country, all the power to them. I don't think Americans would be stupid enough to smack themselves in the face.

But if the good people of the USA are electing Osama Bin Laden, there is a reason. Maybe because they would chose the lesser of two evils?
