  The Spaniards refer to their Prime Minister as "Presidente" (President) in short form, but if they use the complete form (as they often do in the media), they say "Presidente del Gobierno" (President of the Government), not "Presidente de España" (President of Spain). *You* need better luck (or further knowledge) next time.

  Zapatero is not the "president of Spain", as Spain is a monarchy. Zapatero is the President of the Government of Spain, that is, the Prime-Minister.

  Houran, a magazine that mentions the president of Spain needs an education. But obviously not in the USA.
