Salutations!

Welcome to Vom Politik where I'll be blogging on US and UK politics and foriegn affairs with my thinking and writing strongly influenced by Carl von Clausewitz's masterpiece Vom Krieg.

I'll use my background in politics on both sides of the Pond to offer a regular source of interesting links and reading material to amuse, intrigue or even add value to our understanding of "politik".

First up, essential US political blogs...

MAR!
Welcome to the blogsphere. I look very much forward to the live commentary from the trenches in the upcoming battles. My personal favorite so far was the Obama-Hasselhoff comparison. Because of this and because I am not particularly optimistic, I would bet you a bottle of China's finest (Great Wall red) that the next President is going to be a rather old man...
Keep it up - I especially like the use of cryptic German in the title.
Cheers
Nik
P.S: The book never made it past Chinese customs. Maybe after the Olympics...

Dr Nik!
So sorry to hear about the great Chinese Zombie-information crackdown in advance of the Olympics. Glad you like the blog and apologies for my corruption of German. I'll happily take your bet on Great Wall Red, we'll toast president Obama together with it!
