Heh, this happens practically every election. You folks probably don't remember back when Bush was elected, and practically every celebrity threatened to leave the country. None of them did, of course, but they certainly threatened... It didn't hit during Obama's first election as much, but that's mostly because the alternative was John McCain, who pretty much everybody agreed was terrible. I had a terrible fever and don't remember the second Obama election too well, but I think the fall-out was about the same, just less publicized. There will always be people that say they'll flee the country if a certain canidate wins or loses. And I say:

Go ahead! If you think there's another country better then America, it's your right to go seek it out.
