Well the Queen is the equivalent of the US president.

The Prime Minister of the UK is not equivilent to the President of the USA, the Equivelent in the USA to the Prime Minister is the Speaker of the House of Representitives, which at this time is John Beohner. He is the leader of the majority party in the House of Representivites(the republicans), just as David Cameron is the leader of the majority party in the House of Commons(the conservatives). ...yes i know he has a coalition, but i don't need to explain that complex arrangement, do I???

Obama is equal to the Queen, not the Prime Minister.
