Heidi Klum and Seal say they will leave America if John McCain becomes President

Seal and Heidi Klum issue US election ultimatum "We'll leave America if John McCain becomes President!"

Star couple Heidi Klum and Seal have threatened to take their kids and leave America if Republican candidate John McCain wins the US Presidential election.

Seal (45) dropped the bombshell in an interview with Vanity Fair, in which he revealed: “If McCain is elected and America staggers on further towards the abyss, then we will leave the country. That is not a problem for us.”

Although the British singer, who can’t vote in the forthcoming election, doesn’t idolise McCain's Democratic rival Barack Obama (47) like some of his other fans, he did admit: “There is no doubt that he is a great man, and I would put a cross next to his name immediately, if I could.”

The soul legend is certain, however, that America is set for change. He said the interested and politicised youth have “had enough of the atrocities of the Bush administration” and are ashamed of their President.

“The health system is a catastrophe, the economy has hit rock bottom, and Bush has forced his country through lies into an unnecessary and horrible war,” Seal said in the interview.

Seal didn’t reveal where he and his supermodel wife Heidi Klum (35) would take their children if John McCain (72) did win, although many believe their love of Germany may lure supermodel Heidi and her family back to her native country.

    Promises, promises, can we get that in writing? These two aren't even Americans to start with.

    If you put a man over your love for this country, then maybe you should leave. Me, no way any one person or group is going to make me leave. And as far as Heidi Klum and her husband leaving, so what? They're important how?

    Wouldn't it be nice if we all had that choice? Stop flaunting your escape money in our faces!

    Great way to emphasize the ages.
    On another note, Seal saying, "That is not a problem for us", in reference to leaving the country.

    yeah we'll it's a problem for me!

    anyone wanna donate a plane ticket for someone with the same ambitions if McPalinater wins?

    I accept only Euros

    mccain/palin winning? that loss for America would be the beginning of either a revolution.. or a mass exodus of citizens

    As much as people might like to frame this as an ultimatum "Get Obama in office or we're leaving" it's almost certainly nothing of the sort.

    I think it's a statement of intent rather than a threat...

    I think this is easier said coming from someone who isn't a native to this country but I don't blame her and I'd probably consider doing the same if I had the options available.

    I make no threats.
    I will move if they win.

    My wife and I have been planning our move for a
    couple months now.

    We may still move even if Obama wins.

    I can make my own electricity.
    I can grow my own food.
    I can harvest my own water.
    I can make my own heat.

    I cannot provide myself with adequate healthcare.

    If my government and/or country will not provide
    me with medical care, I will leave.

    I will never bankrupt myself for healthcare, no matter
    how much I like the country I am in.

    Whooptie freaking doo! I might miss Seal a little but I won't miss Heidi one bit. Good for them- they actually have the means to leave so I say do it regardless of who wins the election.

    NOOOOO NOT MY PROJECT RUNWAY!!!!

    *weeps*

    Seriously though, so many people I know are threatening to leave the country...nothing new, move along folks.

    They should leave the USA and the contracts that they have here too! :)

    The US needs liberals willing to fight for their values come hell or high water. Liberals who realize their responsibility to make things happen isn't culminated in a once every 4 years election. We can only make it happen through daily, weekly, monthly action. If you think your responsibility ends with the casting of a ballot, maybe you should leave. After you cast your ballot. Bye!

    I think we should all sign a card and say "Good-bye".
    I don't like some of the ways the government is running the country and our lives either, but this is my home and I have freedoms here that I would not have somewhere else. I can't change it if I run to another country.

    it's just a publicity stunt - they are banking on Obama winning. I bet they don't move anywhere, even if McCain wins and this will all be forgotten about in one months time.

    I mean...

    Is this REALLY news? I thought Seal was British and Heidi was from Sweden or something...

    DON'T LET THE DOOR HIT YA ON THE WAY OUT!

    Heidi... can you just leave Project Runway in the U.S. I have really kinda grown accustomed to that show. Fierce!!!! LOL

    But in all seriousness. As much as I hate to say it Conservatives do make a great point when they Liberals are quick to flee this country when the going gets tough. I know I’m guilty of saying (in a joking manner) that I will leave the country if McCain is elected. Maybe we all need to rethink that approach. After all this is OUR COUNTRY! Having citizenship should be like being married.

    “For better or worse, richer and poorer, in sickness and health…”

    We gotta be willing to withstand the good and bad times. If things go astray we’ve got to be willing to fight for our rights and get things back on track.

    I dunno… just something to think about.

    but Heidi does look hot - especially that pic of her milk moustache...so she can come live next to me...

    if I had the money to do it, I'd been out a long time ago.

    Seal needs to shut his mouth, unless he is singing. How could a man with all of that talent be so ignorant ?

    Any room for a third wheel?

    I didn't know Seal was a "soul legend"...hmm, learn something new everyday.

    I'm having deja vu... didn't we hear this stuff in the Bush vs. Kerry election?

    My question is this: What do I care where they live anyways? I mean really does it matter to anyone. Will the U.S. suddenly collapse if they leave?

    Hows Canada this time of the year?

    can they take me with them.

    I don't need to stick around to know what four more years of right wing policies are going to be like.
