good point about stirring up any political views... Maybe it might only be good outside of the states, where people have a view on us politics, but don't care about it enough to turn my opener into a heated political debate...
Yes but also I think this is an opener that COULD backfire, 1 way would be if the girls have never heard of Barack Obama, now this sounds crazy but trust me there are allot of people out there so tuned into their own world that they completely miss everything else around them, or just really stupid (I got a mate that thinks a wheel isn't a wheel unless it's on the ground....). Then the other extreme is as mentioned above, I find that most of the people I know are extremely opinionated about just about anything, including politics (yes some of this people are girls) and debates can be started.
Ok I've just realised I've been really negative in this post, it's a good opener and most of the time you probably won't get any of these problems, but being a man and as such, a logical being I always try to cover all the angles so tend to over analyse allot lol.
