British Election And Food Fights

David Cameron faces a tough reelection bid in Britain.  He has been making an effort to convince ordinary people to vote for him by sharing meals with ordinary people on his tours.  Apparently, he doesn't know how to eat hot dogs like ordinary people.  He was caught using a knife and fork in a gallant effort to show how ordinary he is really is.  Queen Elizabeth did the same thing when she visited the US and was forced to eat a hot dog.  However, she did not have to run for election.  Its a pity that our democratic system forces "extraordinary" politicians to pretend that they are not different from most of the people that vote in elections.
