obama city, japan

In Japan, there is an entire town of Barack Obama supporters... the residents of Obama City in Fukui Prefecture in central Japan are down for Obama: Japanese Town of Obama Has New Hero. A group of Obama fans have actually formed a support group called "Group that Supports Barack Obama Voluntarily." Of course, none of them can actually vote for Obama in the election, but I guess they're just excited at the possibility that their city could share a name with the possible next American president. The cities of McCain and Clinton could not be reached for comment.
