At first, I was like "Who changed my subject?!?"  *snicker*

Who you vote for? Who becomes the next president? Or what non US citizens think?

I'm interested.   

Thanks for the poll.

You and really anyone from the US should be interested in what others think of this election and for that matter you should just simply be interested in other peoples' opinions.  I think most people are.

Who is elected President is very important to the rest of the world.  I wish it wasn't so, but it is.  The financial situation the rest of the world finds itself in is because of the US, and who is elected President will have as huge an impact on us as it will you.

I think it is enlightening to garner any and all information, not just what you want to hear.

Sorry, but I do not need yours or any other non-U.S. citizen's opinion in order to know what is best for the U.S.  I honestly couldn't care less who you would like to see as President.

There is no way for you to understand all of the issues facing this country or what is best for it.  Even worse than what is presented by the liberal media in this country is what is presented in the liberal media in the rest of the world.

We're perfectly capable of self-determination and would appreciate it if you'd just keep your fat noses out of our elections!

BTW, I don't seem to recall any polls here when the German Chancellor or the Canadian, British or Netherlands Prime Minister elections were held.

Why don't you then stay out of this discussion here or just do not read this thread?

I find this  'none of your business, this is an US matter' very narrow minded.

So you don't like me butting into "your" discussion and tell be to mind my own business.

I know the feeling!

Very funny!

I'm not sure what the OP had in mind, but to me the question seems to be what do we think would be best for the rest of the world.

The US has great power. With great power comes great responsibility. This power and this responsibility goes way beyond the borders of the US. So it's quite reasonable that those of us who don't get to vote can still have an opinion.

If you don't want to hear that opinion, that's sad, but that's your prerogative. There's no need to be rude about it, though.

Well said Gunnar

So, if you, as you wrote, know what's best for the U.S. why aren't you to be found on the ballot?

Just be grateful that we'll be here to bail your butts out when Ahmadinejad starts lobbing nukes into Israel and other pro-Israeli countries in the middle east and Europe.

Iran has as much nuclear weapons as Iraq had biological and chemical weapons.
They try to start a nuclear program, as they say for power plants only, wether you believe this or not is depending on your personal preferences.
But if you trust your American sources only be prepared to find out that they lie for the greater good.
EDIT AGAIN:
As well as the Iranian sources, when you come to that.

That would be true if this was for the recent Canadian election.. There was only a 58% turnout lowest ever. Now there is an event that nobody cares .

But this American election coming up is like watching The Apprentice, after 32 weeks,, to find out November 4th to see who is going to be fired ..  I already voted fore the American post now I can cast my vote here as well.
