Very..disappointed.
I can't vent my true thoughts, not here..

*Evil face*
When Romney wins Bi's are doomed! >:D

;_;

We're doomed. You want my real opinion? Most of us Americans (although I am an American I don't count myself among those who I am about to describe) are too self-centered and short-sighted to vote for anything other than personal gain or single issues. Who cares if Romney wants to reduce welfare (calm down, I'm just using it as an example) if there won't be an America with enough money left to even deal with it under Obama?

Hey, you asked.

As a non-American I'm glad as is most of the world at large, at least now America can continue very slowly on the path to catching up with the rest of us in the modern Western world with being progressive on the rights of women, people of different sexualities, people of different gender identities and people of different races.

It's sad, but that won't happen. They'll always find someone else to blame.

And @Echo: Becoming like the rest of the world was never a founding value of America. We made our own country specifically because we wanted to be our own. If being like the rest of the world (and by that I'm guessing you mean Europe) means that they take away our guns, I can tell you from experience that they're gonna have one hell of a time in the south.

Making assumptions about my views on equal rights is completely unfounded and frankly detracts from your arguments. I never said anything about slavery. You brought that in. I believe in equal rights. I also know that our debt has gotten worse under Obama. But if you think that we should be more like Europe and go further in debt and wreck our economy even more, you're entitled to that. 'Cause see? I believe in free speech too. And you won't change my beliefs any more than I'll change yours.

I'm Surprised and disappointed about these results. Obama can do whatever he wants now. But I'm still hoping for the best.

Nice a self-righteous, self-serving European amongst the American politics discussion and who thinks Europe had to part of the rum-sugar-slave triangle nor gave their money to America for what they wanted out of that triangle providing the money of those Americans to buy slaves. How sweet.

My opinion on the topic, RIP America. Get ready for Mexamerica, a 3rd world nation. The nation you will fight for your right to reproduce.

Ahem, Obama deserved to WIN!!! [even though he did] Lol and 303 to 206 >.>

World will end in a month, whoever won won't change a thing. We are all doomed as is.

Although I don't know much about the presidential election (I'm not 18 yet), I think Obama was better about relations with other nations, so it wasn't that other countries where laughing at Romney.

And I do find it strange. So many people are booing Obama yet he won. (I'm happy about that for some reasons.) It's sad how untruthful the press is, like the one time they cut out parts of a video and only left the parts to make the person look stupid. (I forget who that was.) Unless people look further, the people are at the press's will.

Note that I won't be coming back to this thread, as I was just giving my two cents. (But then again I might anyway. :P)

..... Mother fricking Abe and Eagle for 2016.

I can understand not liking Obama, but actually liking Romney? What the hell.
Who we needed was Ron Paul.

As a Green, I just sat down and ate my pack of nachos while uttering,"Which is better, Chocolate or Vanilla?". And I just sat there laughing all day.

I preferred Obama, probably because Romney sounded too much like he was going to start a riot half the time.

Most of these political rally things annoy me, because it sounds just that little bit shy of becoming a civil war. They all might as well be saying 'Dat other candidate's the enemy! Git 'im!'

Another thing: People seem to think that once someone's president, all of the wishes and dreams they had when they voted for him will magically come true. It's not like the new guy can just walk up to his desk and say 'Well, I promised, so lemme sign those papers already, I intend to keep them.' For one, they're politicians, promising long-term things is what they do to get votes. Second, the old saying 'Change doesn't happen overnight' applies. Sure they have a few years, but if you think about it, most of this official fecal matter takes an obscene amount of time to get ANYWHERE.

Like trials and crud. Some people can wait about six months or so until their trial, until when they have to sit in a prison presumed guilty.

Lot's of other official stuff takes a preposterous amount of time to get done, so I just look at the people and judge them, as opposed to what they're promising. Of course, I also take those into account, because if someone's proposing something completely stupid, that candidate's not very likely to be a very good choice, if he/she can even propose an idea like that.

In any case, although I prefer Obama over Romney, doesn't mean I support Obama. I know too little about American politics and current events to properly judge, but so far I'd say he isn't doing too much of a flash job either.

Yes, it does take a while to do stuff.

But when you have the super majority in the House and Senate for 2 whole years, and the only thing you pass is Nationwide socialist healthcare, there's a problem.

The reason they lost the super majority is just because of that fact.

@Psycho:

You have no idea lol. There's so much I could say about this administration that makes me upset...

Like his peacemongering by disabling over half of our missiles. I've got no problem with peace...certainly it's better than war...but why compromise our country's security and ability to protect ourselves 'for the effort of peace'? Whoever wants to attack us will be more inclined to, not feel less threatened. Eesh.

Yep...politics gets me all riled up inside.

~Sev

I'm a political bucket.

Hehe.

PS: That pail pun, bad as it was (and twice), made me laugh inside.

obama's campaign people made up a bunch of stuff about romney.

Romney is NOT against gay people. He is for equal rights.

He hasn't done anything against women. There are some republicans that have... but he's not one of them.

Romney is more of a moderate republican. He's not a straight republican.

I really wanted romney as president.

But someone said it earlier... no matter what way it's going to be bad because of our economic state right now.

I also don't agree with taxing the rich more to get more taxes out of them to give to others. Please don't think of me as thoughtless, it's just that I plan on going to podiatry school to be a doctor. I will be earning money and saving to take care of my family. I will be working hard and putting in long hours for years and years. Why should I be punished for my success? Why should I have money taken away from me and given out? I want to be able to donate my money freely to who I choose to donate to. I don't want to be told where to put and and someone else decided on what terms it is given to who. I know good people that I know struggle because of special circumstances in their lives, and I would be more than happy to help them. But the way that the government treats successful people, agriculture, and small businesses is completely ridiculous. They are what helps the economy thrive. There are too many people in this world worried about what others do and they get jealous. Because of this jealousy I don't get help with my school. My parents aren't paying for my school. I'm paying for it. But because my parents make too much money I don't receive help. So instead I have to take out student loans that will take me probably 20-30 years to pay off. This is why i wanted romney. I wanted him because of him knowing the value of business and that our economy thrives off of business.

Plus, if you treat rich people they way they are now... they are least likely to take chances and invest. When the rich want to invest and take chances then it can help create new businesses and new jobs. The economy will thrive. Just... my observations.

i just hope obama doesn't screw up on saving our economy. if he messes up, i will eat one of my teeth.

That's an improvement.

Some person acted akin to some concited person writing how gays can now marry was disgusting and immoral.

I really don't care who won as long as the economy still survives (even better, thrives) and everyone in this world is happy. end of story.fullstop.

You've been out-of-country for a few years, haven't you?

Or for the 2nd half, out of this world.

I don't think either of your prerequisites to not caring has been fulfilled for...a long time. lol

@Thimol: I can't believe all these people that would want a man who said that banks and corporations are people at one point to sit in the oval office.

I can't believe you would vote for a party who claimed that banks were too large to fail, leading to economic collapse.

Now that he cant blame Bush for his problems, he decided to go over the cliff and blame it on the Republicans.
