John Key appears on the Letterman show in the US tomorrow when he will present a list of 10 reasons why people should come to NZ.

Herald writers Alan Perrott and Greg Dixon have put their heads together to come up with a list they feel the Prime Minister could comfortably use.

And below Bill and Ben have some suggested questions that David Letterman could ask the PM.

Perrott and Dixon:
10: Our scenery is almost as good as the movies.

9: Even if you stand on a chair, you still can't see Russia.

8: Don't worry, lots of us don't understand irony either.

7: Apart from Michael Laws, we have no poisonous animals.

6: We actually put coffee in our coffee.

5: Good news girls, Simon Dallow's available again.

4: Good news guys, Helen Clark's in New York.

3: We dislike the French too.

2: We're 20 years behind the times, but hey, we're first to greet the sun every day.

1: Our leaders are identical; they both have homes in Hawaii and neither is a Kenyan-born Muslim.

Bill and Ben of TV3 comedy Pulp Sport and Radio host Paul Ego's curly questions:
10: Is it legal to eat kiwis? If so, what do they taste like?

9: Can you ride a sheep in New Zealand?

8: Do all the women in New Zealand look like Rachel Hunter?

7: Could you beat the Prime Minister of Australia in a fight?

6: Do all young men in New Zealand look as weird as the Flight of the Conchords and Rhys Darby?

5: Is it true that some of the orcs in Lord Of The Rings were real New Zealanders without makeup?

4: Any relation to Allen Key? I hear he's really good at putting cabinets together.

3: Your country's changed. The old Zealand wouldn't do that.

2: How does it feel to be more girly than the last prime minister?

1: Isn't it about time you stepped aside and let the Bill and Ben Party run the country?
