Calling non-US citizens: Which US President would you vote for?
There's a thread in the Fodorite Lounge asking non-US citizens which Presidential candidate they'd vote for. Quite a few US citizens are looking forward to your response.

Hard to believe that US citizens much care who non-citizens would vote for (I certainly don't) ... two observations, most of the people we know in Europe are pulling for Hillary because of fond memories of the Clinton years, and in Tanzania most of the people I spoke with are giddy that a black man might become the next US president and are pulling for Obama.
Surprisingly while in Kenya I learned a lot of locals are not happy with the Obama candidacy, because he's part Luo, a tribe in a blood-feud with the ruling Kikuyus, so it breaks down according to which tribe you're a memember of.
