No one will move out of the Country--no matter who is elected. We will go on with our lives. hopeing for the best. I, for one, am not too optomistic about either candidate, but I hope I am wrong, and that whoever is elected does a great job.

no..Im stuck here my child has autism which means we wouldn't be accepted anywhere. dont think I didnt think about moving these past 8 years. I dont think the USA is safe. If McCain wins..mr war-monger.. we will be even less safe. Funny how the repubs took the SURPLUS Clinton left them and drained it now china basically owns our you know what for this Illegal War in Iraq. But these republican keep saying their way works, and trickle down works.. proven NOT to. Look at our economy!! working people here are DIEING and losing their houses because the crooked insurance companys wont cover things they should. please people I beg you, make the right choice and vote for Obama --Someone that sees more for us all than war.

That says a lot about here and not very much about the rest of the world.

I do not think it's easy for people who kids with disability to come here either from another country. it's considered a drain on the system.

Almost every industrialized nation including us have disability laws protecting such judgments except for when it come to immigration.

I would never move out of the US no matter who is elected because no matter who is leading, it IS the best country in the world.

Yeah, I can't stand Alec Baldwin, either.

Back to the op post...the answer is never to give up on this great country and leave. The answer is to stay and keep fighting to make it great.

The way I vote has no bearing on anyone else and in no way determines whether I am a man or not.

I also intentionally left 2 choices out which would be, I will vote for "X" but would not think or talk about moving.

I did not want this to turn into a typical Obama/McCain thread which thankfully it hasn't for the most part and I felt if I had all those choices up it might.

By the way our post was useless and off topic.
