A royal invitation

Maybe not so much -- from the London Daily Mail:
Snub for Obamas as Royal sources reveal they will not be invited to Prince William's wedding
President Obama and his wife Michelle will not be invited to Prince William's wedding next year.

Because Prince William is not yet heir to the throne, his wedding to Kate Middleton is not classed as a �state occasion� � and the couple feel under no pressure to fill the 2,000-strong guest list with heads of state, the Mail understands.

They are more eager to ask ordinary citizens and charity workers than foreign dignitaries and VIPs to what will be the first royal �people�s wedding�, courtiers suggested.

A handful of heads of state are likely to be invited in line with previous royal weddings, possibly including France�s President Nicolas Sarkozy and his wife Carla Bruni.
Well, considering that Obama gave the Queen an iPod loaded with pictures of her state visit to the USA and audio of Obama's speeches and he gave Prime Minister Gordon Brown 25 DVDs of classic American movies that will not play on UK DVD machines, it is no wonder. I guess that, like the rest of the world, the British are just waiting until we get a real President back in office again... Posted by DaveH at December 17, 2010 12:02 PM
