>Do you really feel the poor homeless person has more power in the US elections than in those you just compared it to ?

Yes I do. It follows from the simple fact that there are no free and fair elections on those countries. Freedom of speech in combination with elections gives us some power to change things. People in dictotorships don't have those powers, regardless of whether or not they are homeless.

Homelessless exists in Europe as well by the way.

Umm... the British monarchy hasn't held executive authority in centuries. They're window dressing like almost all European monarchs.
