Poor President Obama, the would be king of the United States. His poll numbers are dropping, he gets heckled by his own followers and now, today he found out he is not royalty.
From the Washington Post: Foreign dignitaries, the Middletons’ family friends, British government and defense officials, families of British soldiers killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, William’s army colleagues, and people who work for William’s charities will be seated around the abbey.
Palace officials said that only crowned heads of states are traditionally invited to royal weddings, and that political leaders who are not from the 54-member Commonwealth of nations, such as President Barack Obama or French President Nicolas Sarkozy, weren’t sent invitations. http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/official-royal-wedding-list-released-by-britains-monarchy/2011/04/23/AFVgQ2TE_story.html?hpid=z3

Probably, another reason Obama was not invited is that the Royal Couple don't want another I-Pod of Obama speeches he has given, like he gave the queen.
