there is an old joke here in russia :
Obama dies and for his good behaviour in heaven god decides to give him one wish. So obama says "Well its been 20 years since ive passed away, id love to see just for a day how is America doing". So God sends Obama to earth for a day. And walking in NY Obama decides to stop by a hot dog place and gets a hot dog and a can of coke. And while he eats he asks the sales guy "So tell me, how is America doing? Any trouble? Any wars? How is our foreign policy? Is anyone causing us trouble?" So the sales guy says "What you on about? We are the greatest country of them all! Who can cause us trouble? War? What war - we kicked everyones arse. Our foreign police rules the world, everyone listens to us. Its all absolutly great"
So Obama being happy, finishes his meal and asks the guy "Oh by the way how much do i owe you?" So the guy replies "2 rubles and 50 koppeks"
