2. Thanks for the link.

Why are there so many stupid people in the US?

4. Do you believe...
... those people have our best interests at heart? I'm not being snarky, I am genuinely asking.

8. To a degree, I think most of them do
but more importantly, they probably sleep better at night knowing that the world's only superpower is being governed by a President who isn't a war criminal.

The citizens of the world apparently see McCain as too similar to Bush.

3. Barack is on 87.4%- now.
Which don't surprise me too much. We speak and vote as we find.

As an aside the fact he's black is of no consequence whatsoever outside of the USA - quite rightly so although if of consequence it may well be a plus.

6. More like how the US, Canada and western europe would vote
if you look at the responses by country, most have fewer than a couple dozen, alot are around a hundred. Brazil had over 3,000 which was kind of surprising, but for the most part asia, africa and south america aren't really contributing a significant number of votes.

He ought to leave countries grey until they reach some percentage of the population voting (.001% maybe?), otherwise it's awfully misleading to say Mali (for example) would go to Obama with a grand total of 1 vote collected.

9. Oh they love the McBatshit down in Burkina Faso, Macedonia, and the Belarus
I wonder what these three countries have in common?
It's very interesting that McCain actually has almost 20% support in Iran.

10. You have to remember Palin was a member of group supported by Iran
Or at least spoke at their meetings. No wonder Iran supports their ticket.

11. NOT really interesting since they don't get to vote in the election.
What matters is what Americans who DO get to vote think.

Let's focus on THEM.
