It was a high-roller double date Wednesday when Prince Charles and Camilla met with President Bush and his wife, Laura, at the White House for lunch, then stayed to attend a black-tie dinner with Washington’s elite. It was the first joint trip to the U.S. for the British pair since they married in April. RedEye looks at how the royals stack up against America’s dynamic duo.

POLITICAL INFLUENCE
The president is often referred to as the “leader of the free world.”
Charles would be The Man if it weren’t for that Tony Blair guy.
Winner: Bushes. This is America. Greatest country on Earth. Duh.
CUTEST COUPLE
The president is known for preserving his physique by working out regularly, and the first lady is librarian-chic.
Charles and Camilla always look very distinguished in their power suits.
Winner: Bushes. Camilla will never be the fashion icon Diana was.
HEIRS TO THE THRONE
Barbara and Jenna are known more for their goofy antics than their political prowess.
Prince Harry has been a wild card, but Prince William is reliable (and hot!)
Winner: Winner: Royals. The twins don’t have the princes’ charms.
OVERALL WINNER:
Bushes. England can’t mess with Texas
