I have mentioned this slightly in my previous post, but I am a strong Obama supporter who is currently living in Japan. In the past there has been a perception that Japanese people were racist against blacks. If you look at anime from the 1970's and 80's you can certainly see some stereotypical depictions of black characters for example.
Things have clearly changed for the better in the last few years. When it comes to Obama he is incredibly popular with the people at large. Not so much with the conservative politicians though. In fact Obama is a cultural phenomenon here and there is a town in Fukui Prefecture that shares a name with him (prior to him running for president). So without further adieu, here's Obama in Japan!
First a video from a group of people in Obama, Japan.

This is a debate between Obama-kun and Hillary-chan. Hillary may never have looked so cute before.
Obama and Hillary settle their differences. Also Obama thinks Hillary's hair is really cool and wants something just like it.
And you can't leave out McCain either! This really captures the essence of the candidate's messages.
Obama: Yes we can! McCain: No you can't!
