Which U.S. candidate has more international appeal?

This poll is for non US citizens living outside the USA.

Hello TRF members from all over the world. From what you have seen of our 2 candidates for U.S. president, who appeals to you more?

Please no serious debates here. Just a little poll.

This poll is for non US citizens living outside the USA.

I haven't paid much attention to the campaigns to be honest. I know that McCain is getting a lot of bad attention because of some things that he has said and done, and that Obama called Alberta's oil "dirty," which I didn't appreciate, being Albertan!

There's my two cents!

I could!

Oh sorry you said trust...I thought you said smack!!!!!!

As for the prez candidates...Man we have enough trouble in the UK without having to worry about your guys.

I'm sure, like the rest of the world, whoever you pick won't do a good enough job.

Who'd be a politician....or a mod!!!!!

Hmmm...work 40% time for 100% pay, plus free trips, gifts, and massages (wink, wink)...doesn't sound too bad, eh? And if you're a politician, the perks are even better.

After the fuss over Bill Clinton's love life I'm not sure how the religious right here in the States would deal with the ovine fetish thing. You could 'spin' it into 'the Good Shepherd' watching over the flock..... yeah that sound good!
