aussie's want 2022 world cup but Barack Obama wants our World Cup US President Barack Obama has gone head to head with Kevin Rudd over football's World Cup, throwing his weight behind America's rival bid to host the 2018 tournament by writing a letter to FIFA president Sepp Blatter.
"As a child, I played soccer on a dirt road in Jakarta, and the game brought the children of my neighbourhood together,'' Obama said, according to excerpts released by the U.S. Soccer Federation on Tuesday.
"As a father, I saw that same spirit of unity alive on the fields and sidelines of my own daughters' soccer games in Chicago.''
FIFA's executive committee will decide the hosts for both tournaments in December 2010.

Australia launches its bid to host football's 2018 2022 world cup AUSTRALIA has launched its bid to host the 2018 or 2022 soccer World Cup, with the event promising to bring a $3.9 billion bonanza to the nation.
Football Federation Australia chairman Frank Lowy declared today at Parliament House that the bid was "realistic" and "achievable".
"Hosting the World Cup would provide Australia with an unparalleled opportunity and give Australia a lasting and living legacy for generations to come," Lowy said.
"On the world stage, there is no event with the same level of global appeal or audience reach as the FIFA World Cup."
Lowy said the people of Australia were the bid's "secret weapon".
"People from all over the world want to visit our country," he said
The winning bidders will be announced in December, 2010.
Rival bidders for the 2018 World Cup are Australia, Belgium/Netherlands, England, Indonesia, Japan, Mexico, Portugal/Spain, Russia and United States
The same nations plus Qatar and South Korea will also bid for the 2022 World Cup.
