    Not American but I still care as it affect the entire world, so far the candidates scares me. Swedens election I care but our current prime minister is a fool so for the next election it can't really get worse

    Individuals do not really matter when it comes to the US government. Any given plan that a not despicable Republican puts forward is going to be tainted by his party members.
