Actually, the fact that most of the world prefers Obama should make us rethink whether he is actually the best candidate to look out for the US first and foremost. He won't BTW. He will test the prevailing global winds, rely on the corrupt UN, and generally be a disaster. This poll is ridiculous as most foreign countries do not want a strong US, so if they want Obama, they think he will be the weaker of the two candidates.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15329279.post-47271217283562441412008-10-05T18:24:00.000-06:002008-10-05T18:24:00.000-06:00Don't count out white middle America, the elderly ...Don't count out white middle America, the elderly and a surge in young Republican voters. Surveys ask "if the election were held today, who would you support?", but the question should be "are you actually going to vote?" Many who are surveyed never vote or don't take the time to vote, so factor in the "lazy" factor on November 4th, then compare it to the actual voters who never miss an election. That tightens up the race and gives McCain a slight advantage.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15329279.post-20055796994811505872008-10-04T19:15:00.000-06:002008-10-04T19:15:00.000-06:00As often is the case, Stan, I'm with you!

I think that:<BR/><BR/>(1) Most of the world views the U.S. as an aggressor nation because of the actions of the Republicans over the past eight years;<BR/><BR/>(2) Most of the world believes that the U.S. would be more generous to them under a Democratic President than under a Republican President;<BR/><BR/>(3) The election of a Black President would send the world a signal that the U.S. is overcoming its racist past.<BR/><BR/>That said, when I cast my vote on election day, it will be for the President of the U.S., not for the President of the World.Stan Gibiliscohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15455094392489031332noreply@blogger.com
