WTF?

Just when I thought people couldn't become more prejudiced...

Misconceptions of Obama fuel Republican campaign

....

I honestly don't know what to say.

It's terrible isn't it? It makes me think of the time where someone typoed Obama so it became 'Osama' - which I really doubt was unintentional...

i wish i was american so i could vote, it'd be an easy choice for me.

Me too. Although I wouldn't want to be an American because I can't really think that their system is that democratic, but then again - which country has a perfect system? No one really.

i like being canadian. it's pretty cool.
and you are right, no one has a perfect system.
but im all for change in the states, because it affects us too.

Out of curiosity, how would a change of state in the US affect Canadians? I know that your country and the US have to be sort of... in each other's business a lot but, yeah... I wanna expand my knowledge :)

I'm not an expert really, in fact I've never really cared about politics until this year. But I would think in terms of trading, the economy, the way they use (or abuse) the environment (that goes for us too obviously). They're such a huge country that what they do we have to kind of keep up with, but our dollar changes when theirs does (i have no idea why), then we have agricultural trading, etc, etc.

I'm sorry I can't be specific I don't really know exactly what I'm talking about. lol
