There have recently been many protests after Gordan Brown seemed to start a transatlantic row concerning John McCain, the Republican president running for the 2008 US election againt Barack Obama as Gordan Brown seemed to be supporting Obama in a recent article. If McCain wins however this could cause alot of tension. In the article Gordan Brown comments on Obamas “progressive ideas” and “it is the Democrats who are generating ideas to help people through difficult times.” Gordan Brown also praised Obamas ideas to prevent householders having their homes repossessed when they were struggling to pay their mortgage.
However it has been said however Mr Brown has been infact giving equal time to both the Republicans and Democrats during London and Washington meetings and did not draft the piece and may not have even approved the article. Many are saying Gordan Brown should have learnt on the dangers of interfering with elections after John Major’s Tory government was accused of helping George Bush Senior in the 1992 presidential race.
