With all due respect. I feel that whether the election be American, British, French, German, Russian or any other country. That election is for the people of that country and people in other countries should stay out. While it is true that we live in a world that has been globalized to the point where the descision of one country will have an effect on another, there are still domestic issues of that country that need to be decided by the citizens of that country. Sovereign rights need to be respected.
When I see the Guardian doing this, I see yet another example of European arrogance where they feel that they are better qualified to select the American President that the American people themselves are. They make this descision based purely on how the American president will effect them and give no regard for the domestic issues of the United States which is what will have the primary effect on the American people who are the ones voting.
