Well said. I hate to say it, but most of my fellow Americans walk around with blinders on. And normally when I even try to discuss anything serious with my friends and family, it leads to a fight.
I've lost more friends because they don't want to discuss politics in the last year then I'd have imagined.
This past presidential election was the first I was able to vote in, and I bloody well knew it was an important one. Now I'm not so niave as to say it was the most important presidential election in the history of our nation. Because, let's face it, early on there were probably some things that could have got us to this situation sooner. But I digress, all I wanted to say was, don't disreguard these comments just because he's not an American. It is his business. That'd be like telling our president to butt out of matters in other countries. (Most of the time, that would actually be more appropriate) Because we have a great effect on the world at large. So telling someone from another country that US Policy is just not their business is flat out wrong. Anyway... That was my little rant, I have to get back to work.
