  • Interesting link.

    American voters are largely apathetic to the rest of the world. It will be interesting to see what impact, if any, this conversation will have.

    i guess the time for U.S.A has come up sooner than most empires,well better to vote MCain coz we would not like the fall of U.S.A to be blamed on Obama!

  • Turbopixie

    Very, very bad idea. The Guardian newspaper tried this in 2004 at the last election and were inundated with letters and emails from US citizens, very annoyed at being patronised and told what to do by “outsiders.” If anything, it actually increased Bush’s proportion of the vote.

    I didn’t think they’d do something like this again. Guess I was wrong.

  • Gah! Turbopixie beat me to it. Anyway, here’s a link to the Guardian’s‘s Operation Clark County; and check out the American voters’ reactions here.

  • Thanks for the post! I curious as to why you think if Mc Cain is elected it’s goodbye USA? Surely America’s global standing is not that much on the decline?

    Turbopixie, I wonder why you think this is such a bad idea? Sure there are Americans who think that people should stay out of their internal affairs, but only if the US can stay out of theirs. More Americans need to see how their actions affect people all over the world.

    Plus I really doubt that increased Bush’s proportion of the vote. =)

    We have over 70 videos-local and global about this. See here :

    Hope you’ll consider putting across your point of view as well
