Ever wrote If you don't live in the US, your opinion is useless. You can agree with such and such person but you still can't vote.

Why is their opinion useless? Someone from another country sharing an opinion can change the mind of others within the US. I have actually seen it happen on this very subject. Also, I think we should look at their opinion more. I mean, whatever leader we have here may affect them at some point. We drag other countries into wars and our economy affects the entire world. They may not be able to vote, but I do believe their voices should still be heard on the matter.


You see no problem with what is essentially a foreign nation influencing an American election?

There is a difference between a nation doing it and the people of a nation. One more or less implies the government doing it. How our economic and war choices affect other countries, should we really ignore people from other countries that rely on America to make good choices? I mean, I know I wouldn't want to go about doing my own thing only to have other countries have an economic collapse or get involved in a war due to what we did. I just think due to how we are almost all tied together and how we are the most powerful country in the world, we should have a little more responsibility and acknowledgement of what could happen due to our choices. I also feel it just being common courtesy to criticize bad candidates no matter what country you are from and what country is having the election. Let people know flaws in the candidates. If I overlooked a huge issue, then let me know. I just don't really see it. I mean, we have the internet now, so opinions and influence from around the world is going to happen anyway.

I'm not from USA but if I was I'd be voting Trump.

Although You's may call him an idiot etc, he could be perfect to run your country.

Sometimes you need someone like him to lead the country.

You think he's JUST an idiot? No, he has no political experience whatsoever, not because he's a successful businessman makes him able to run a country.

If you aren't from the U.S and haven't followed politics recently then I don't even know why you even bother to comment on this.

Pure ignorance.

You do not need ANY political experience to run, or be elected as President of the United States.

The constitution clearly states that all candidates be of 35 years of age, a US born citizen, and must have lived in the country for (I think) 7 years straight, prior to running for the presidency.

All of which, Trump has done. He is allowed to run for president, anybody who meets those requirements is allowed to run for president.

Did you even read my post? I didn't say he wasn't ALLOWED to run, I said not because he is a businessman it means that he will be able to run an entire country.

Nor did I say you NEEDED political experience to run as president. We all know the constitution, so please don't feel like your actually benefitting us with what you just said.

I'd vote for him solely on the fact that he has no political experience. The last thing this country needs is another all talk no action politician.

Plus, Trump has a great team of advisors who will help him make educated decisions. You don't need political experience to be a good President.

Pretty sure you do need to have a bit of political experience to be atleast a decent president, lol.

Also the mere fact that you said you would vote for him because he has NO political experience is extremely ignorant. I also sense a bit of hypocrisy in your statement about being "all-talk no action" because that's literally how he is. He says he'll make America "great" again but this man doesn't have a clue what he's talking about, he just wants more power, and he'll step on whoever to get to it.

That also goes to your other statement about his "great" team of advisors that'll help him in making "educated decisions" If you are already a good president which you defend to his right then he doesn't need a team of advisors to make "educated decisions" for him.
