Calling all non-US citizens: Which US Pres. candidate 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.

Ira,

This is a travel forum.

Thus schuler directed posters like me to the Lounge to discuss politics.

If you comment, please say which country you are from and when is your next election, so we can all give our opinions on that.

I liked how Arnold Schwarzenegger performed in the Simpsons Movie.
Let's make him president. He sounds sooo cool when he speaks German with his funny Styrian farmers dialect.

Just want to hear him say:
"Leeed us nuke oll those Ireenians"

In his movies, he's always dubbed by some high german speaker. I first heard his voice when he was promoting Terminator I, everybody in the audience was giggling. A man big as a tree, and a voice like a stryian hillbilly. Anyway he's unique.

I never would have known he has a hillbilly accent, were it not for MIL. Just sounds like a germanish accent to us Americans.

Now, the Decider, on the other hand...

What does this have to do with travel?

I wish Herr Hitler or Uncle Stalin were running.

You really wouldn't want to vote for sons and brothers and husbands of some presidents. There are millions of people in your country, you really think husbands and sons are a good choice?
Sounds more like some freaky kingdom.

I am discussing Austrian accents, and how they sound to fellow Austrians vs Americans. I don't know about you other people...
