...Although its makers insist that the musical's purpose isn't to glorify Obama (played by the American actor Jimmie Wilson), there's no doubt who the audience is supposed to be rooting for. There are some laughs when McCain, who is presented as a slightly awkward, Machiavellian character, enters the stage.

For those who doubt that climate change is man-made, look at it this way: global temperatures are increasing, man-made or not; fossil fuels will run out; carbon dioxide is increasing in the atmosphere; carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas. It doesn't matter if global warming is man-made or not. We must aim to change to sustainable energy sources, increase research and development into alternative energy sources and cut down on carbon emissions. We'll have to do it anyway - fossil fuels...
