I am sooooo pee-ode, when I read the title of this thread I thought, 'oh good, he's changed his mind & running for herr bootlicker'. Only to find that it's all about Europe loving this wallydraggle. <sniff>

Holding Germans accountable for Nazi Germany is illogical. I'm sure you (as anyone probably does) would object to African Americans holding current whites accountable for the crimes of their ancestors. People possess the ability to grow and separate themselves from wrong-doings of the past. The fact that other countries favor a Presidential Candidate serves well when considering foreign relations, and the support we've lost on the watch of the current administration.

I would hardly call it "useless;" mind you it has little bearing on the election, but as America is so crucial in the world abroad and the perception of America has suck great import, this is an interesting look at how the world perceives our choice.
