I am at a loss to understand how anyone thinks he did a good job... he acted awkward (with that wierd smile), he sounded like a hill billy..he might as well held a sheep and wore a grass skirt to perpetuate the understanding that the yanks have of NZ!! What an embarrassment and what shame .. there are ways of being comedic without selling out yourself and your country....AND I dont remember having a referendum saying we liked AMERICANS!

I think John Key did us proud. Not only is he our PM but he shows that he is also a normal human being, a true-blue New Zealander, able to give and take a joke and gives himself no airs and graces being PM and comes across as a very intelligent man with empathy and respect for both his people and his country. Good on you John, you're a warm-blooded and caring NZer - most of us love you and you are doing wonders for our country. Long live John, our PM.
