dear americans… abbie cornish would like you to vote for obama

Abbie Cornish is Australian and therefore isn’t eligible to vote in the upcoming U.S. election, but feels very strongly that Barack Obama should be president. If you’re not too fussed about the whole election thing, perhaps you could vote for him on her behalf.

I’m foreign, too, so if one non citizen with great hair isn’t enough to convince you, maybe the two of us will.

I’ve lived in the U.S. for more than five years now and don’t have any plans to leave just yet, so even though I talk funny and don’t get most of your eighties pop culture references, I do feel a bit American and do care what happens to this country, and this country’s effect on the rest of the planet.

Please vote!
