How pathetic

How pathetic is this presidential race crap. I listen to BBC which covers this a lot and you americans make me laugh. It is publisised that the speeches are written by PR guys. It is even publisied that obama's wife only said all that shit the other day to paint a picture of his family and make him more appealing as a family man. You americans lap it up! makes me laugh you are not voting for change your voting for who has the largest marketing budget and best PR guys.

Am i wrong do you all know this and as such are not going to vote because ultimately its just pointless? I dont think so.

All this love your country crap. The american dream obamas wife trying to make a speech with all this "I love a country where people can dream"

DO YOU ALL REALISE YOU ARE BEING BRAINWASHED.

In reality your country is the biggest dictatorship on the planet, disagree? try not to pay your taxes, or try to stop your president going to war. You bully everyone else and for some reason see yourselvers as the worlds police!

For god sake america NO ONE CARES!

For the record this is not a personal attack and I like loads of american people and this does not mean i hate all americans. My step father is american and he agrees with me. It is merely my opinion on the general state of the US as a whole.

EDIT 1 - If anyone says yeah well the uk this etc. I hate us too we got highest taxes in europe and loads of our own problems apart from following you around the world on your "peace missions" lol

Exactly!


I would though....Vote for her i mean

Do you not find it a bit ironic to judge how much Americans "lap up" what the media feeds us based on what the media is feeding you?

I've grown thoroughly disinterested in voting in this election, actually.

happens everywhere mate.

Every political party in most countries have PR people and speechwriters that work very hard to portray a particular image of their candidate.

Ok well then i take back just america then it just seems way more prevelant there. Im just pissed with the system tbh. Really we the people vote for a face then.

If the speech writers and PR guys do all the thinking

then are we not voting for the speech writers minds not the candidates

So why not just vote for the guy who writes the speeches

Or if we insist on voting for our favorite face to go on money then I would rather have paris hilton TBH

Just hate how the world has become you know. Seems fake to me.

You don't understand.

The UK has a Prime Minister who doesn't really have much power by himself, he's just the boss of his side of the floor in the HoC.

In the USA, the executive branch has a ridiculous amount of power and it needs to be in the hands of a person the American public can trust to use it, it's almost as though the Americans elect a King for 4 years and give him free reign to do whatever so long as he doesn't bug the democratic headquarters or lie infront of an inquiry about banging members of staff.

It's a lot easier to keep a PM in check then the President, a PM can get his ass handed to him if he puts forth ridiculous legislation and actually be forced to call an election (minority gov.) The president simply wont get kicked off his throne unless impeached.

The sad thing is, there arent any worth while candidates for presidency, cause anyone that could make a difference doesnt want the responsibility and headache.

Maybe I dont to an outsider it seems like the candidates are being fake to win people over. i dont believe that they really are like that you know.

yes, i agree.

it shocks me when i see the "stories" that make it in the US media. sometimes it just feels juvenile imo. i guess that's what happens when you have 300 million people? i dunno.

but it bakes my noodle that people give a shit about the woman that the president sticks his dick in. who cares if he married a cranky old bitch that hates america?

maybe that'll make him the best president ever? you just dont fucking know.

After seeing the coverage and reading which demographics vote for whom, I honestly hate minorities just as much as I hate white conservative racists now. Not all Americans lap this up, and I tune it out completely now. In fact I don't ever watch the American news. You can summarize nearly every story into two categories: celebrities and dead people. The only clear view of what's really going on is The Daily Show and the Cobert Show.

Yes I disagree. We are 3rd to China and Iran. Also, it's ok because we have Chipotle everywhere so I dunno why you are really trippin.

Quoted just for the hilarious irony and hypocrisy of this post.

You're welcome to get fucked too. People like you aren't worth the shit from my asshole, and you make the worst of Americans look like humanities cream of the crop.

Edit: And I do realize this is just the first in a long line of posts from complete fucking morons who feel compelled to comment on the American political system when I guarantee they haven't a clue how their own works. Really quite amusing too see so many complete fucking idiots try to wax philosophic about something they don't understand.

Oh my touched a nerve here. See how small minded some people are I am expressing an opinion which could be right or wrong. I was ill informed until someone posted the bit about electing a temporary king almost. I attach more importance to it now but I am still annoyed at the culture I suppose. I just wanted to get a debate going about how false what these guys are saying is really is. Also to the poster that said I haven�t a clue how our system works I do actually I studied it at A level for 2 years proportional representation and the first past the post system etc. I also said I hate our ways too!

Im sick of America though

America is the only country in the world to ever drop a nuclear weapon yet you seem to want to tell the world who can and can�t have them.

America invades Oil rich countries and only countries that do not benefit your economy. Example you disagree publicly with how china does things don�t see your tanks rolling up there seen as the US economy runs on borrowed Chinese money.

America have people crying out that the stick thin model culture is harming young girls but then have the largest press coverage in fashion in the world.

America seems to think that you are the authority in the world.

All of this would be ok if you kept it to yourself. Why do I have to listen t it on all the radio stations tv news anytime I open a fucking newspaper!


So to the not good enough to be shit out your fat American arse guy. Explain some of the above if you can.

Why? You're clearly a lost cause already, so it'd be like talking to a brick wall.

I don't make a habit of giving idiots an education out of nothing more than charity, so I'd rather just watch you continue to get all worked up and have a bit of a laugh at it instead.

At least that benefits me, albeit in a small, superficial way. Trying to argue with you would just be a waste of my time, I'd rather just watch the car accident happen than try to stop the inevitable.

Indeed.

And it would be if this same thread hadn't occurred at least four dozen times already in the past 3 months, and each one had ended the exact same way.

Let's buck that trend!

Dude why when you get offended you give it all Your not even shit etc. Then when I try to talk back you duck out. Be a man and admit you dont know me to insult me, I am entitled to my opinion, i make some valid points and I have not tried to offend or say that my country is any better not even once. I am just having a debate I would love it if someone had something constructive to say and proved some of my opinion wrong.

Lost cause what do you base this on?

I called it!

Isn't that the fault of your local media printing what's happening in America? Its your local media who pay attention to it, its their fault you get bombarded with it.
