Global Interest in the 2008 Elections - Howard Fineman

Americans are being forced to choose Obama by a process of elimination,just so the Socialists in this country will finally be appeased and get a Black president. McCain chose idiot Palin which immediately finished him off as a viable candidate-so we are left with no choice-we need to totally eliminate the Electoral College and we need to have the right to vote for whomever we wish and not be railroaded into choosing what they force on us.

The Bushshit regime really F*@$^ed us over.

New nations will rise but America will stay great as long as sticks with its good old principles and not follow inward-looking policies propagated by right wing media personalities like Bill O'Rielly, Lou Dobbs etc.

Post war Japan, West Europe, puppet military governments were US beneficiaries and followed the US policy. America's contribution in the rise of Russia, India, China & Brazil is marginal and it cannot claim credit for this.

Russia, India, China, and Brazil grew, because they accepted American investment. Their governments were too incompetent to create economic growth. America should get all the credit.

Tijo: Dont you think that their own citizens should give just a bit of the credit? Just a bit

Maybe the world isn't watching the US elections because they think the US is important, as much as they are watching it because it is the best and most hilarious type of reality tv. This election is a huge joke. McCain's greatest strength is that he was tortured, while Palin learned everything she knows about leadership from her experience as a hockey mom, and everything she knows about foreign policy through binoculars pointed at Russia.
