Dr Matthew Hill speaks on BBC One Breakfast about the 2012 US Presidential Elections
Tuesday 13 November 2012
Speaking to the BBCs Tim Muffett, Dr Matthew Hill, who is lecturer in US politics at the Institute for the Study of the Americas, offered an international perspective to the US presidential election.
He suggested that support for President Obama in the world would not be as effusive as in 2008 because Obama’s politics and responses to issues was now a known quantity. An example to demonstrate this more measured support can be seen in the initial reluctance to support the Egyptian people wanting political change during 2011.
