Unfortunately, this is the present unprincipled, cowardly, and extremely immoral state of politics in America. To vote for Obama is COMPLETELY dismissive of third world peoples who he has authorized, endorsed and supported the murder of. Shame on those who decide to vote for a drone-strike trigger-happy, civil-liberty-smashing monster because they’d rather have their imperial party of exploitation and oppression beat the less-pleasant imperial party of exploitation and oppression in America. It seriously turns my stomach.

jesus fucking christ
i’m glad you have the privilege of not voting and declaring yourself morally superior
but laws OBAMA HAS ENACTED have positively affected myself and people I know. I had to leave school due to mental illness. Before obamacare, that would’ve meant I could no longer be on my mother’s health insurance plan and I wouldn’t have been able to get the mental health treatment I desperately needed. My father could probably have afforded to pay for it for me, but that would’ve put my family further in the hole money wise. With obamacare, I stayed on the insurance, got help, and now seven months later I am ready to live on my own again and finish my education.
and if you pay attention to politics at all you know he’s done lots of other good stuff.
obviously all politicians are pieces of shit and this imperialist country kills people on the daily
and obama deports way too many people and it’s totally a fucking mess
but that does not mean the difference between Obama and Romney is negligible and would not affect my life
so fuck you and don’t ever call me a coward again for voting

Speaking as a Third-Worlder living in Canada (moving to the States) and refusing to become a citizen of either country, I think OP has it really terribly wrong. Unless another more viable presidential candidate pops up in the next few months, or unless the Americans have a complete breakdown of their electoral system and governance, voting for Obama is really the better choice for us, yes, the rest of us in the world.
Yes, still imperialist, but since I can’t pick “no imperialists in power” I’d rather go with “less imperialists and actually gives a shit” than completely fucking imperialist, another four years of Bush-esque ridiculousness.
