I've been reading constant critique of Obama over the past week or so, and for the most part, I still remain skeptical of his foreign policy or the nice guy "I appeal to all" boring statements he constantly churns out. I'm not really an American but would any of you (Americans) vote for Mitt Romney? He genuinely seems like someone who'd set the country back by 10 or so years. Pretty much most of his stance on stem cell research, gay rights, abortion and religion is contrasting to that of mine. His "god told me to become president" interviews and media releases annoys me to no end. Whilst those aren't the most crucial characteristics, his foreign policy lacks the grit and determination required to sustain the general 'exporter of democracy' which the US seems to have taken up.
The economy though is unknown territory to me (other than more and more of it being globalized and dependent on other countries). At least there's no talk of "austerity" there.
