FROM ASSOCIATED PRESS

TOKYO — The Japanese designer of the clear-rim glasses worn by Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin is grateful for the attention she is drawing to his creation, yet he remains politically neutral.

<snip>

Kawasaki says he shares what he sees as some common political sentiments with Palin, Republican John McCain’s running mate. ‘‘I am quite right-wing,’’ he says.

At the same time, Kawasaki admits to an affinity with McCain’s Democratic rival, Barack Obama. Kawasaki’s former students at workshops for local governments and other regional groups are among the residents of central Japan’s Fukui Prefecture, which has a city called Obama. They have started a community movement supporting the Democrat, although none of them can vote in the U.S. election.

‘‘Whether it becomes Mr. Obama or Mr. McCain, I want to ask him to build peace in the international order,’’ Kawasaki says.
