Thank you (American) people!
I do realize now, why the American voters dont give a damn, for us
(the rest of the world) since the situation and their internal problems can be so "complicated", that would leave no room for that!
Considering the false info they might be feeding you, leaves you with no chance, to make the wisest decision. The American voters have minimum fault here,
not only the special ones, like Andy,
but its there own interests that indirectly guide their government to act like that!
And you cannot ask from someone to fight his own interests, for the shake of humanity...
You are not the arrogant, selfish piece of $hit, the rest of the world think you are!
The fate of the world cannot be decided by the American voters!
Even if they do get to vote a decent president, they cant know for sure his hidden agenda, after all he is a puppy of his party/funders/high rank supporters
and dont forget: all politician are hypocrites!
(well maybe except Bush, since he is too stupid for that)
The Anti-American propaganda is overrated, the world barely handles the American existence, but i believe this is what we brought to our selves.
As a Greek, i m not in a position to judge the Americans, they are our spiritual western child, they act exactly as we did, in our prime and they are proud of it, exactly is we are today.
(create culture, expand commerce/financial growth, science, democracy, bla bla bla, by the western standards, we set)
But as a citizen of the modern age, i expect them to be more responsible/reasonable,
times have changed, the conflict of interests remain the same, but they way of resolving the differences is way different today.
US proved that they can destroy an empire as powerful as the Russian federation, without the use of lethal force and they set some new high standards for the modern world, going back in the age of stone wouldnt be the wisest idea...
Third world countries are not the barbarians, they once were, the war on terror makes sense only when ppl from both sides are not terrorised
There are countries in the world that live with the fear that the new US president might bomb their country,
just imagine your selves in their place, thinking who would, mister Obama, bomb?
