If shallow Germans want to vote for someone because the speak well and can read off of a teleprompter let them do it. Americans on the other hand care about things like policy, our economy and important things like that.
Our Economy is in better shape by miles than your economy. So what is your point? We care about substance in politics, thats why we dont elect village idiots.

If you're very happy to live in Germany why are you so interested in American politics? I guess when german conservatives run out of out of excuses they start to backpedal.

When Obama came to Germany he was drawing crowds of hundreds of thousands in Berlin. I very much doubt Bachmann or Palin would draw even 1 % of that in Europe.
Yes, and they thought Reagan was too. They pretty much think all Republicans are village idiots and worship all Democrats. Unlike Europe we are a right center country, that is why we are about ten years behind Europe on the road to bankruptcy. The fact is Obama's neoconservative foreign policy, expansion of government into medicine and running massive deficits is simply an extension of GW's policies. They are both village idiots.

You don't elect village idiots, you just fawn over them like a bunch of obsessed morons... but then again Germans always have had a problem with letting crazy ideology get out of hand. Let's hope you guys don't decide that killing an entire race of people sounds fun again.

The U.S. is not on the verge of bankruptcy, by repeating stupid false talking points you make yourself look stupid too.

One more think if you every talk to a European in Europe that agrees with your drivel, ask them if they formed their opinions after listening to either one at some length, or just the media's assessment of them. The bias in the US media is stifling, but you already know that.

As someone who has a lot of EU friends and family, and who spends a significant chunk of time in Europe every year, I can tell you that YOUR statements are absolute BS.

Itsjustmeagain's statement, on the other hand, is completely accurate!

Based on your statement, I would think that you are out of touch with reality.
