Thread Name: BS: How the rest of the world voted
Subject: RE: BS: How the rest of the world voted
I am moved to pose this question. Why in the world would ANY American care a rat's ass what the rest of the world thinks about the person who is elected president of the United States?
Do any of you American Mudcatters have a voice in who leads any other country in the world? Were any of you invited to vote in the Russian election? Afghanstan? France? Germany? Austrailia? Ireland? Were any of you consulted about who should be the Prime Minister of Great Britian? Will you be invited to vote in the Iraqi election in January? I think not.
And whoever those countries choose is the BUSINESS of those countries, not ours!
The American candidate for president, regardless of party, is not trying to win a popularity contest with the world! He is campaigning to be president of the United States.
