    LOL, busted. Funnily enough I entered "president of Canada" into Google and it said "did you mean prime minister of canada?" Pretty smart. (I know Canada has a prime minister but then so does Ireland (called an Taoiseach) but it also has a president (for foreign affairs and ribbon cutting as far as I can tell.))

    AFAIK the chief of state in Canada is the Head of the Commonwealth, thus being the Queen of England. am I right?

      Bush is no Texas Ranger. Gus and Call would've whacked him for being surly. (Got so worked up, forgot to answer your question) :doh: Not really a movie character, but that guy from King of the Hill, Dale Gribble[^]

        Any of the Jackass characters comes to mind for our current president (Thabo Mbeki.) But our previous president, Nelson Mandela, has always been Morgan Freeman in movie actor terms.

          Well, how about a cartoon character: Bush would be Wiley E. Coyote. Always trying to blow things up, always bumbling it. I guess that would make Al Queda The Roadrunner, harhar.

                                Not since 1707 has there been a Queen of England. The current Monarch is Queen Elizabeth II (sic) of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of the Commonwealth. The reason I put the "(sic)" after the "II" was is that there hasn't been a Queen Elizabeth the first of the United Kingdom, or of Great Britain. When QEI of England died in 1603 she left no heir. The King of Scotland (James VI) was her closest relative and so he was crowned King James I of England in the Union of the Crowns. In 1707 the separate designation of King/Queen of Scotland and England was dropped in favour of King/Queen of Great Britain. Ireland was added in 1800 and left in 1922.

                                  Well, since my country doesn't have a president I have to ask in what capacity of the POTUS do you mean so I can select the correct individual. Head of State Head of the Government Head of the Military As I live in Scotland this is more difficult as there are two levels of country. Scotland is a country (but it isn't internationally recognised as such). The UK is the entity that is internationally recognised. So, while I recognise one head of government, the world recognises another.
