Feel free to skip. It’s not even a political rant; it’s more like wishful thinking and venting.
Please, don’t let us down US of A. About 95% of the rest of the world (the rest of the world with access to polls that is) is counting on you to do the right thing, the smart thing (i.e vote for the black guy for once).
4 years ago I wrote basically the same thing around pretty much the same time and I must say: that didn’t work too well. So yep, this time around, make me proud.
I’ll try to coffee and cigarettes my way to the result (which should be around 5 am for us Frenchies).
And while I’m at it, word of advice: Californians do not vote for proposition 8 ! Not just because it’s wrong to deny equality (although, you know, it totally is) but because let’s face it, if you piss off the LGBT community and they decide to break out of California, there won’t be that much people left.

Date: 2008-11-05 12:08 pm (UTC)Sans avoir suivi la campagne dans le détail, j'étais plutôt favorable à Obama qui me paraissait plus cool dans son programme que son rival (il est contre la guerre en Irak, ce qui me parait suffisant pour l'apprécier). Mais on m'a dit qu'ils avaient les mêmes idées, à quelques détails près. Et comme je ne savais pas trop quoi penser, je me tourne vers l'expert que tu es pour m'éclairer.
(l'élection du nouveau Maître du Monde vaut bien que je sorte de ma retraite studieuse...)
