If the world could vote, Barack Obama would win in a landslide.
That is the result of a poll conducted by the BBC's World Service. The Beeb surveyed over 22,000 people in 22 nations across the globe, Obama was the pick of respondents in all 22 countries, and was a 4-1 survey-wide favorite over John McCain.
Digging a little deeper into the numbers, 46% think that America's relations with the world at-large will improve if Obama wins the election. Only 20% thought relations would improve under McCain. The one odd country in the survey was Turkey - more Turks thought relations with America would worsen under Obama rather than McCain, yet Turkey still hoped Obama to win the election.
Among the countries surveyed were Australia, France, Germany, India, Russia and Turkey. Obama was favored by 82% of those surveyed in Kenya, his father's birthplace.
