I agree, A.J.  But, on a positive note, it tells us how interesting we are!    Seriously though, I have no problem with nonameericans showing interest or commenting on the issues.  I DO have a problem when they start downgrading our candidates and trying to tell us who we should or shouldn't vote for. 

It's not about how interesting you are.  We're actually more concerned that there are enough uneducated voters in the US who will make a mistake and cause Americans to come to my country in droves.   OnE of those candidates in particular likes them uneducated folks though now don't he?

Of course Americans have opinions about, and comment on, what goes on in other countries.  I've never seen anyone on this board, or any other one, take up arms against a candidate outside of the U.S.  That is just incomprehensible to me. 

Taking up arms?  Do you think I've got a gun here and am ready to use it?     It's incomprehensible to me that you think I might do that!

Well, personally, I doubt if Americans are going to look outside our borders for advice on who to vote for.  Please stop throwing personal insults at our candidate.

I highly doubt that you will.   I actually asked a serious question earlier and no one is responding.  What about John Kasich? ??

Again, I went through the many reasons why I am concerned.  Are you concerned about Israel?  I wonder.... You shouldn't be.. Not only do you not live there, but it's so very far away too! 

I am not concerned about Israel.....   my father in heaven has that covered, and maybe he will use us to care for their safety, but from what I read in the Bible he will do that personally himself.

Not that we should not treat them fairly without reprimand.    but worry about Israel....    Nope not a bit.

Do you talk about Israel, Iraq, Osama Bin Laden (when alive), Sadam Hussein (when alive)   Afghanastan, etc?   Do you concern yourself with politics at all outside of the USA?

Gold is an relic of bygone days and not really relevant in the financial market today.  The idea that after some major economic collapse gold would still hold any value is equally an antiquated idea.

Well, of course you deserve an answer to your question.  Kasich is kind of a 'middle of the road' guy.  He's a good man from everything I read about him, no scandals that I know of.  He's also VERY experienced in economic and foreign policy issues.  Kasich's problem is that he is seen by many as too moderate and too much the career politician and too willing to jump the aisle in Congress to capitulate to the Democrats.  He is seen as solid 'Establishment' and the country isn't in the mood for that.  Americans want change, not more of the status quo.
