The US elections are coming soon. There is plenty of talk within America about the pluses and minuses of the 2 candidates - rightly so.

But not many inside the US system consider or care what the rest of the world thinks. The US has a huge effect on the rest of the world so it is not unreasonable for non US people to have an opinion.

Which candidate will do what, as regards the Middle East problems for instance. Romney has already publicly given the nod to an Israeli air strike on Iran's nuclear plants. Does the US have to have so many military bases around the world that it can't afford ? etc. etc.

Maybe there should be a class B vote, totally by foreigners as to who should be President and with what policies.

If there are any non US citizens reading this far - let's hear your views

They're certainly entitled to their opinion. I don't necessarily care to hear it though.

Uh...NO! We have too many people in the country voting that shouldn't be. Why the fuck would we want to allow foreigners to vote? That's just stupid.

No country is an isolated island and trade makes us all better off financially.

Not many Americans are more than 3 generations old, so lets not have any of that " fortress America - pull up the drawbridge " sort of shallow thinking.

aaaaaaaaaah don't be like that. Can't pretend we don't exist, can you ?

You seem to be wishing to return to the 1930s doctrine of isolationism - but that didn't work.

I thought we were talking about VOTING, numbnuts.

What's with the "bait n switch" tactic?
