Just a statement: George W. Bush has not been elected as King of the world. As President, he has power over the executive branch - not a whole lot more. If all of you people from other countries have such objections to Bush rising to power, why is it that you treat him as a God elected by all of those 'stupid Americans'? Wouldn't it be easier to just recognize that Bush isn't your father trying to keep you from going out on a Saturday night, but is, rather, just a single man who has been labeled to represent a cause?

It's almost as idiotic as people's specific hatred towards Osama bin Laden - the only power he has gained has been the power you have given him. Osama is not the entire terrorist network of the evil middle East - he is one man, fighting for a cause he believes in (ignoble one at that), and should not be deified and villified as though he is the entire problem.

Don't let your puppeted frustrations cloud your judgement.

hes not king of the world but hes the leader of own of the most powerful (economically, militarily) nations in the world and has influence or many countries if not all to some small extent. thats right, he has power over the executive branch and not the judicial or legislative. What gives if he had judicial or legislative power. Everyone knows he doesnt and if he did if wouldnt be a "democratic" country.


its sad that a country is so divided by only about 3.5 million votes, which is not very much at all and so different in values, which is what decided this election for a large part, in my opinion

I followed your first paragraph, but I can't follow the writing on the second. How different in values we are is what decided the election?

The difference is values between Bush and Kerry resides on the issues of Pro-Choice, vs ...not prochoice.

Bush is strongly against abortions and same sex marriage, and Bush is a hardcore Christian, which appeals to many rural communities.

When u look at the large metropolis (sp?) areas such as L.A, NY, Chicago, Miami, those cities have been favoring Kerry (DEM). Im assuming that rural areas are more value oriented and religious than city oriented people.

If you believe that's the only reason Bush won the election, you are out of your mind. Even in the metropolis's, Bush took votes. Denver for one, had more votes for Bush than Kerry. I don't know the exact census numbers, but I am willing to bet the metropolis's account for more people than the rural areas by a long shot.

Why don't you get your country's governments stabilized and your economy situated and your armies organized before you start yapping about ours? You obviously can't run our country if you're having trouble running your own
