Obviously our country is not in very good shape. The blame is constantly shifting between republicans to democrats. We're in a crisis in which we can't afford an irresponsible/bad president.
Now I'm not going to sit here and tell you that Obama has your best interests in mind. I won't. But I will tell you that Romeny REALLY doesn't have your best interests in mind. He's about as corporate as you can get. Unless you're earning over $300K a year, then it doesn't make sense to vote for him, because he doesn't care about you.
Not only this, but he's a morally reprehensible man. While this doesn't play a huge role in politics, you can tell what kind of man he is. I don't feel like voting for a man, that bullied other children while he was in grade school, and held down a boy and cut his long hair...
Thoughts?

I think you've got normal options Keyboard. You have a choice between the guy who IS screwing you over and the guy who WANTS to screw you over. Politicians, they're like children.

It's always a choice between the lesser of two evils. I argued with some girl about this. She told me she didn't want to vote based on those terms. I told her to get use to it, because as long as politicians interests line up with business interests, it will remain that way.

you should vote for me, i should be president, i can fix this country
first we take care of the justice system, it needs to be simplified, all you need is a judge get ride of the jury and the lawyers, and two appeals if you can't prove your innocent by then off with your head. for less violent criminals they will be puit in to the army no need for long term incarceration. and for the short term you don't need no tv,, no privet room, or food, weight room, etc . dam it i dont get free tv why should then. they get one garden that's it. and seeds to plant, they can get there own dam food. and there is no need for guards to be inside the prison they get one giant room plus there garden. thats it. the guards stay on the outside in case they try to escape. if they kill them selves screw it there in prison wtf did they expect. if any human rights activist complain they will be used as guinea pigs in drug trials and medial experiments, this way no animals trh will be harmed, the same goes for peta.
foreign polity thats easy. you want our troops pay for it cash only, or we can send the prison army over. although if they chose to to go awl or rebel in any way and cause a greater issue, its not our consern. it is now your issue good luck thats what you get for not paying cheap bastards. we will have to nuke china, they out number us, can't have any country out number us, that goes for india too, and russia, there bigger then us can't have that either. as for the middle east nuke them all that will end all fighting over there and most of the threats to us. besides a little radiative oil never killed anyone
the food and drug administration can find all the meat from one cow with mad cow disease, yet the the immigration department cant find one illegal when they are all having a f'in protest at the capital, there role shell be reverse, hell the fda can't screw up any worst then them
congress, and senate, every 3 months there shell be a vote by the public to see if they deserve to have there salary stay the same, raise or cut in half. see how fast issue get fix then, i bet social security wont be an issue any more. and no special benefits or retirement packages for them, they get the same treatment the rest of america gets when we retire, not this salary for life crap and then there spouse inherit it. dam politician.
health care reform, canada has a great policy so they can send there doctors and medical personal down here they can also flip the bill to, or else, (see russia), not like they have an army anyway, what are they going to do throw maple leaves at us. cut off hockey. big deal we have the stanly cup now anyway. bunch of pansies.
did i leave anything out
so remember vote for me. or else i will find you

I hope it's not someone else prime minister Harper can be buddies with because that would suck again.
American politics influence Canada so much we might as well be the same country but we would be more like Porto Rico, run by the United States government but they don't do anything for the people lol

I don't think anyone not from America would understand the presidential election such as people from the UK, Australia, NZ, you know? They don't understand us and we don't understand them in politics. The only thing that's retarded is that there's still kings and queens. The middle ages are over (another thing most people from Australia and NZ don't know about) Not calling anyone out that's not living in America so don't take me wrong...

it can all be boiled down to one simple fact. we are voting for the best lair. if you think about it thats all there doing. when did any of them deliver on there promises, this health care crap was talked about from at least the last 4 or 5 that i remember, non of them every helped reduce the national dept. and seriously they spend more money on the election then they get paid....wtf, if you looked for a job and spent more then that job paid you would be living on the street. do you see any of them living on the street, no. they get free health care, free body guards free housing and a salary for life. face it were f***. were not peasants, were below the peasants. if the peasants had kids and the kids had a dog and the dog had a pet, that would be us
ill stop hear before i really get rolling, and start ripping apart the political system

exactly what kokoro said we are voting for the best liar. they make enough ppl think thats what they are going to do. then the rich people that funded there campaign and line there pockets during the presidents time make the decisions. obama said he would seriously lessen the crackdown on medical marijuana but it has been more prevalent because someone is lining his pocket making sure it doesn't happen. everyone bitched at bush for starting a war the debt and what not. and obama made it worse. said he would end the war pulled troops out of iraq and sent them to Afghanistan. and mitt romney isnt any better. we're screwed

Of course we realise that Zen. Our countries weren't even discovered until after the seventeenth century so technically there was no Australia or New Zealand during the middle ages. Besides that your presidential election directly determines whose ass our government jams it's nose up.

I just wish America would get its shit in order economically and in foreign affairs. As an Australian it is worrying to see the rise of China (look at its increasing Naval strength and how it is aggresively pushing the issue in the South China sea against Japan, Vietnam and the Philipines. And dont forget how China pulled the strings of Cambodia at the ASEAN conference) and America in an alleged decline.
Some countries like mine look to America for leadership on the international stage and at the moment it is badly needed lest China get too big for its boots. I think Americans forget how much American power and leadership means to smaller countries.
