Who are the British pulling for in the American presidential elections?

Question

Does it matter Republican or Democrate? Is there a favorable canidate?

Answer 1

I think people are more towards Barack Obama of the Dmocrats against Hillary Clinton and the Republicans.

Answer 2

Al Gore, we are still quite a long way from the elections
and Gore is building up his base which, I think, will enable
him to be a democrat favourite. However, he will not
have another disgraceful cheat scam against him, so
he will only be a candidate if he is certain of being elected.
All his appearances are a test of his popularity. I think he
will make it, at least I hope so.

Added note: If you are unaware, then read my opinion
further. Al Gore is travelling the world? Yes, and why.
There is no other way of cleaning up the GWB mess in
Iraq etc. without an Integration plan which includes all
ethnic and religious differences. It must be overall, we
have had too much hate and revenge feeding the fire,
more than any missile or bullet. Now, if you are unable to
see that Mr. Gore is only going to be a Presidential
candidate, if he can restore American National Pride,
show respect and honour the 3.600+ lives that have been
lost, restore a sense of importance and care for all those
who have lost and eye, arm, leg or disabled in any way
and give these men and women a better chance of
returning, and feeling that life is worthwhile. It is easy for
all of you critics to bypass this point when your only
problem, perhaps, is an ingrown toenail. If so, you better
wake up to reality. Mr. Gore is not stupid, and he knows
an overall integration is the only way to world peace. And
no President will ever be able to restore stability without
the support of all that feel outcast. Put yourself in the
Presidential Office and think, take action and restore
World order in a peaceful and sensible way, what would
you decide, and act before more lives are lost. Mr. Gore
knows the answer, but he needs to be supported by all
those who feel discriminated, turn them around and seek
their support. And this is exactly, in my opinion, what he is
doing. Because he knows that worldwide integration is
more important, in the short term, than any climate problem
which is a medium to long term problem. If what I have written does not make sense to any reader, I ask you
KINDLY to revise your priorities. Help Mr. Gore and we
will have a more peaceful world. Small differences will
always exist, but nothing that could not be solved in a
respectable debate. Mr. Gore is the man for the job. For
those who do not agree, and you have the right not to,
please give me all the thumbs down or, if possible,
please express your contrary opinion. Thank you, all
those who respect your neighbour and have read this
report, or blog, to the end. With all my best wishes for
peace.

Answer 3

According to an online survey I took, I am 85% supportive of Senator Obama

Answer 4

The British (and all other countries) think we're nuts for starting the presidential campaign 2 years in advance (especially since only half of us will vote anyway).

Answer 5

Ron Paul without question.

The problem is, he's being marginalised by the American "mainstream" media and politicat establishment because he's far too dangerous. Why? BECAUSE HE TELLS THE TRUTH!!!!

This man could, without question, lead America back from the brink. If you let him.

If you've never heard about him, make it your business to find out. Check out his voting record. Check out his views and opinions. USE YOUR BRAIN BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.

Answer 6

I'm really sorry - but I have enough problems working out what the heck the UK politicians are going on about! Whatever they decide in the end then the result is going to be the same - the US President will say "jump" and our wimp will say "how high?" Sad to say - they're as bad as each other. I've tried protesting, withholding votes, heckling, sending petitions, I'll carry on doing that but I know that really, none of it helps. It makes them feel a bit awkward for 5 minutes...........

Answer 7

I am an American, and I nievely wish we could both have honest, strong, and compassionate people running our countries. I have been reading a lot of other comments, and many places don't think much of America. That is so sad... We're not all bad... I love any other country regardless of, then again I am a one in a million soul. I don't mesh well with American society =D

Answer 8

I'm Irish and a Republican, so not of the septic tank variety, l would lean to the far left if could vote in your election.

Answer 9

I don't care for party, I care for person. Maybe the black candidate should get elected - unless he has a private mission to undertake that doesn't include everyone. But to be honest, in the eyes of most Brits - nobody cares anymore. We simply don't trust the yanks - and it seems like your days in power are numbered.

Answer 10

It doesn't matter, America is too big to be competently ruled by one person as we've seen countless times. I guess the black guy, Clinton would sell her legs to get some power, something in her false persona makes me think she'll be another political puppet.
