How do other countries view our presidential candidates

Question

I'm just curious as to whether there are any "opinions" out there in the world. I'm probably most curious about the Middle East...

Answer 1

they look like puppets, actors, from the outside of US.

in one word: fakes

it's the facts i'm telling you about. that's how your "presidential candidates" look like from Europe.

Answer 2

I do a lot of work with people in Bahrain, Quatar, Saudi Arabia & Dubai.  The honest people look forward to a stronger anti-terrorist US lead by Republican John McCain.  Those that make money off of caos and support the terrorists look forward to Democrat Barrack Obama.  Those on both sides that make religious comments are excited to have the Muslim Barrack Hussein Obama in office.  When I tell them he claims to no longer be a Muslim they laugh and say once a muslim always a muslim.  They know he was educated in a Muslim school in Jakarta, Indonesia and know he will do whatever he can to help the muslim cause.

France, Canada & Italy have moved away from Democrat Party type Socialist gov'ts and embraced Republican type conservativism for the first time in years.  They have realized Socialism is a failed policy and look forward to Republican John McCain leading our gov't.  They will be sadened to see the pinnacle of Democracy turn Socialist and march toward Communism if Democrat Obama is elected.

Answer 3

The current President of Iraq told Der Spiegel that he supports Obama's plan for Iraq.  That says a lot, no?

Answer 4

who cares what the world thinks,when you live your life seeking the approval of others you will never gain it,why because when you bend over backwards trying to please others you will find that they want more from you,and in the end those you seek to please,will turn their back on you when you need them the most.beware of those that say we are friends,and then had you a list of demands to keep such friendship,depend only on your family,i.e. americans we may not always agree,but when you are in need or in danger,only your family will be there to help or protect you,this is the problem with liberalism it seeks to destroy family forcing you to depend on strangers in your time of need,or danger,and in a time of danger i would but may faith in an american democrat before i would trust a world liberal.

Answer 5

who cares what they think.  they should solve their own problems before sticking their nose in ours.  

Answer 6

It would seem that most European countries love Obama because their governments are just as liberal and socialist as he is.  As for the Middle East, they are gonna love him because he won't stand up to them.

Answer 7

Iran, Libya, France, and Iraq love Obama. Need I say more?

Answer 8

Judging by the UN and how they exclusively vote Against us... while we throw our money at them like no tomorrow

I'd be skeptical of who other countries like

Answer 9

below the political/media elitist level, probably not much.  Just like we feel about theirs.

Answer 10

Well, does 200,000 people showing up to see Obama in Germany make any impact on anyone?

Answer 11

All countries love Obama, which basically means hes the best.
