I think the situation is very funny. I heard something fuuny from one of the US senators. He said that maybe they should bring in Jimmy Carter with election delegates from all these third world countries to solve the election problems. Cause for people who do not know, when there are other countries who seem to have trouble with the democratic process, they bring in Former President Jimmy Carter with US and other first world nation delegates to solve the election problems. So now we will put the shoe on the other foot. We have people in power to stop the counting process major players in the Bush campaigne. We have people saying that hand counting is wrong because they think that three people looking at a voting paper cannot tell if there is a hole punched through a slot. We have votes changing everyday, cause the machines use to count cannot seem to count right. Seems like a country that portrays itself as the best in the world continues to make a joke out of itself in so many areas. And if I hear one more time that they are deciding the leader of the free world then I am going to scream. No wonder so many countries are begining to dislike the US. The arrogance of the two candidates and the instability of this election result will only make things worse. For God sake, these people cannot even finish an election, I think it just shows what most of us already knew about the US. "Let take everything to the Courts" I found it very funny watching my pay TV coverage and having CNN annouce the winner, then changing to Fox News annoucing they were the first to say bush is the winner, the BBC, then all the other news channels, one jumps in, they all followed. Next we will have them sueing each other for individual votes. Maybe by the time the next elections come around they will have decided a new funny man for the US President. Quite frankly I doubt many coutries have much respect for the US. Like most coutries we only pander to anyone other coutry for finaicial reasons. Most of the time we do respect the people of the country, but not the governments. And I would hazard to say the US government is one of the least respected in the world. I would not trust them for any money in the world. Doesn't the CIA run the US these days, they started the Vietman war, I doubt any of the presidents have any real power.
