Barrack Obama

Barrack Obama has a dream. A dream of looking like Frank Sinatra. Its important for today's leaders to look like members of the Rat Pack - they were all at it at the G20 summit. Barrack was Frank, of course, but Nicolas Sarkozy was christened the new Dean Martin and Silvio Berlosconi Sammy Davis Jnr.

It's not for us mere mortals to speculate about what the politicians decided at the summit, but if I were put on the spot I'd guess they were sloshing Bourbon everywhere, and singing. Gone are the old divisions: Old Europe and New America, Emerging economies and Emerged. These titans of the world stage are an example to us all.
