Who would you vote for?
« on: July 22, 2008, 11:28:31 AM »
I was watching the news last night and they were listing all these countries and saying that over 50% of the population was watching the US election closely.  It was actually over 80% in Japan... higher than in the US!  So that made me wonder, for those of you NOT from the US, who would you vote for; Obama or McCain (for your own reasons of course)?

The entire world thinks Obama is quite literally the global messiah.  Very very troubling to me.  McCain would be better for the country and for the entire world, but Obama has the flash right now and lots of it.

In my opinion McCain can say in 5 words what Obama says in 20 words.  It reminds me of Clinton and how astutely pompous he was when talking.  I guess after listening to bush mutilate the english language for 8 years people want to get that winded feeling again.

It wont last and Obama will screw things up like theres no tomorrow and the flash will be gone.

Yeah, but most of the effects won't be felt until he's out of office, and some new guy will take the blame.

My guess is that they would vote for neither as they are not eligible.

:rofl


I like McCain as far as a hero goes, but he's subpar when it comes to being the kind of leader we need.   I feel the same way about Oalabama.

No, it relates to the subcutaneous possibility that Obama is in reality Jesus Christ in the flesh.

Any candidate that would castrate the US economically and diplomatically would be a favorite among the populations of many countries. For some he would create an opportunity to excel, for others an opportunity to exploit the weakness.

I'm not going to venture an opinion as to which one of the candidates will further this cause more, but I believe that this is the exact criteria that many would be looking for in our next American President.

A news report said that over 80% of Japanese are watching the US election closely? That's absurd.

The US election makes the news once in a while in Japan, but it's the fascination at watching Americans obsess over the two-year long carnival of it. It's like you've never seen or heard a politician before. The US election looks like professional wrestling and you are viewed as wrestling fans who think it is real. If anyone is watching it closely, they are probably laughing about it.
