Oh my god, the world could not stop laughing when 'Freedom Fries' happened.
Perhaps to re-enforce my intention with this thread, I wanted to know how non-US members feel about the elections and candidates. I think most of us realise that America is not a bad place full of lard asses (although I'm sure there are many Americans who'd disagree) and every American I know is great. I suspect that I like them because they are well educated and well travelled, and have had the opportunity to become global citizens with global experiences and international friends. Perhaps it's because they are open minded and cultured, and they embrace the world.
Every country has it's insular religious conservatives who resent change, don't like foreigners and have no interest in crossing borders, it's just truly mystifying when a country that is so pioneering, is governed by such a person.
Daswig, you can have a million miles but how many days, months or years have you spent abroad? Have you lived abroad?
