Emperor Barack - I

Barack Obama has a chance to do what no one has ever done before - Become the world's first democratically elected Emperor!

Think about it. He got rousing welcome every single place he visited over the last couple weeks. Over 200,000 Germans turned up for his speech there is a dessert in Palestine called the "Obama cake", the King of Jordan chauffeured him and unofficial polls in New Zealand show that he is more popular than the candidates running in that election. With his Kenyan ancestry, he has parts of Africa covered as well and penguins in Antarctica wouldn't give too much of a damn either way! There is a real chance for Obamasphere around the world!

But to be a little more serious, in this age of widespread information, will denizens of any nation or region temporarily lease out leadership/executive positions to a more competent individual even if that person is not a native of the land?
