Shouldn't you care? If USA becomes too soft, China will claim some territorial water of Australia as well.

EDIT: I am not saying Obama will be too soft; I'm just stating a reason for having interest in American presidential race.

[–]woody2107[S] 2 points3 points ago

You're right, I probably should, but as it happens, not really. We've got plenty of ocean to spare.

[–]imaketrollfaces 1 point2 points ago

Wait till some natural gas reserve is found in the ocean floor around Australia.

[–]woody2107[S] 2 points3 points ago

Ah well the Australian government would just spend the money on shitey tourism campaigns and red hair dye anyway.

[–]Stewiecasserole 1 point2 points ago

What...other than those we're already into in Bass Straight or the 64 off the West Australian coast? You're pretty dumb aren't you. American? Gunna vote Romney?

[–]Dream3r111 2 points3 points ago

Let me just say, this man does not represent Australians. As a Western and English speaking nation, everything policy regardless of whether economic, regulatory or constituent will have a flow on effect to Australia.

Obama won't cut enough military funding to make America 'soft', however with a rising Chinese economy and workforce it will be impossible for America to maintain a larger army than China in the long term.

In Australia voting is compulsory (you get a fine of $180 for not bothering to vote)

Please Americans choose to vote and vote for Obama

WTF are you on about? So you support upscaling military forces? Fuck you. You think that we hang on everything those fucks do or say? GFC...They brought that shit on but it hardly affected us. Sure our dollar went through the roof which affected import/export but for fuck sake we are moving on while they are still floundering big time and looking for another conflict to kick their economy off again. What shit do you watch all day? CNN?

And what....the US of fucking A will come to our rescue? Please!!!!! Our diggers are the ones getting dragged into conflicts to ssave your sorry asses.

The more you know. Cheers.

Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on your political spectrum) the entire world should care about the US Presidential election. We are major players in pretty much everything and everywhere. The same goes for us in the US as well though. We should care more about the political situations outside of here, and it disappoints me that so many people don't.

Well we're just hoping the earth opens up and swallows the whole fucking country to be honest. All our problems will be solved in a heart beat. Without you lot here's a glimpse of what we would have missed out on....Vietnam, Korea, Somalia, Afghanistan, Iraq - TWICE for fuck sake, 911, McDonalds, Hungry jacks, shit TV, boring as bat shit sports like your pussy grid iron (sp?) and a fucking shit load less violence every where...not to mention that it would have been nice to have a few more Indians and Buffalo around. Not having a go at you personally but just your country and it's politics.
