Obama scares the hell out of me.... The way he just came out of nowhere and swept the country (and the world?) by storm.... they way he has millions of followers thinking he's gods gift to the world's problems... this dude reeks of "anti-christ"........

Needless to say, *I* am not voting for him.

you are joking, right?

I mean, there is just no way someone really believes this.

it'd be a good idea to give voters a test, just so we are sure there aren't individuals who vote for s*** reasons.

PS- why should this be a non-us question? He's running for prez in MY country.... why should my opinion not matter?

It's not that it doesn't matter. It's just that the subject of this thread is to know what people from other countries feel about it.

I picked Obama in the poll. Like mentioned before, it's because I think McCain is just Bush, part III.

Who owns them? Does he just rent seven houses?

I see in the overwhelming news about McCain not knowing how many homes he owns, you didn't hear that he actually owns none of them, and many news agencies can't even get the number right for who does.

Yeah, just further proofs how dumb US religious people are.... anti-christ.. lol

world power, ha.

Let me take a wild guess that Obama is winning this pole. Whatever, I hope Obama wins so that he can see how hard a job it really is when fuel prices continue to rise which will in turn continue to keep the world economy down. Although I'm sure when Obama suggests more drilling and the building of pipelines once he's president because that's when people want results and not just mindless talk we won't be hearing about how he's trying to destroy the environment. Of course if a Republician tried to do the exact same thing he would be lampooned by the media. I mean Democrats won congress 2 year ago and they have a lower approval rating then Bush but Republicans are evil and Democrats can do no wrong in the eyes of the media. Ron Paul would be the best candidate in my opinion.

Obama for me.

Oh and has it been mentioned before that it's "Schwarzenegger" and not "Swarchenegger"?^^

No one would ever possibly vote for Swarchenegger, because we all know he's a prick! :p

Obama: "Eight is Enough"

Personally, I think Obama would be the best for us (Canada) to work with. We all know Bush did SFA for Canada-US relations, and I can't see McCain doing much more.

They might apply Palin's experience to Canada. You know, Alaska is beside Canada, so he must have extensive experience with Canada. :rolleyes:

I never understood the fear of a candidate coming out of nowhere and winning an election. I mean, we make movies about that kind of story. Republicans especially LOVE that kind of man. The every man! A normal Joe, a common person. It worked for Robin Williams, eh?

I mean, the Republican party is probably the only group of people who can simultaneously call Obama an elitist and a nobody without their heads imploding. Not to mention the only party that can revere an actor as if he were the second coming of Christ, just to be terrified of an opponent people get excited about. If anything, it's a great way to clarify who the dittoheads are.

I would say obama since he seems only one with his head screwed on when it comes to foreign policy and actually resolving conflict in middle east and help redeveloping afghanistan and other things. Someone like mccaine who would like flexing us military's muscles specially with things like iran i certainly would prefer not to get dragged into more messes then what's been done in afghanistan etc. He also only respectful person i've seen running for election so that's where my choice would lay.

I see in the overwhelming news about McCain not knowing how many homes he owns, you didn't hear that he actually owns none of them, and many news agencies can't even get the number right for who does.

Oh, his wife owns the seven homes, not him. I guess you can't be expected to know how many houses your wife has. Well, hopefully, if he ever gets divorced again, he'll get half.

McCain. He seems more in touch with wealth creation.

I don't see what the big deal is with the question about his houses. It's not only irrelevant, but it really is difficult to answer as property will rarely be registered to the owner's name. Wealthy people have complex tax strategies, so it really was a useless question to ask.

Did you even read the link or find out if they really all under her name (which they aren't)? Have some objectivity for once in your life.

Im thinking McCain. Honestly ive had enough with all these 3rd world countries pushing us about, asking for aid, selling us their oil and crops, allowing us to vacation there and basically being poor and undeserving. Its obvious Jebus doesnt like them, he favors the rich. Its about time America elected a real war monger, Nixon style, so the developed world can finally put these poor people in their place. Obviously bomb Iran as his first act and probably nuke Russia as well. If that doesnt start world war 3 and bring about the rapture I dont know what will. Then me, McCain, Bush, Bill O'Reilly and the seven fattest kings of Europe can sit on our clouds and watch the heathens burn in hell.

Or on the other hand, Obama, he seems nice.

Oh and im pro choice, Bush should have been aborted.

    • I like Tidal, but it still does not control devices from the mobile/app and still no surround support. And yeah re: above comment I still get a lot of network errors and I am on a 4/4 Gbit Fiber connection.
    • Aren`t "security features" and "AI model that can see your screen" a tad diametric!
    • Samsung, Amazon extend 990 PRO 2TB NVMe SSD deal beyond Prime Day 2026 by Sayan Sen Recently, we had Amazon's Prime Day 2026 sales wherein there were several great deals including on SSDs. One of those discounted components was the Samsung 990 PRO SSD as the 2TB variant of it was selling for $370, a very good price after a long time. Although that deal was supposed to expire today, Amazon has now extended that sale further (purchase link under the specs table down below). The 990 PRO is a PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD and still one of the fastest drives available today for under $400. Speaking of fast, sequential reads and writes are rated at 7450 MB/s and 6900 MB/s, respectively. The random throughputs for reads and writes are 1400K IOPS and 1550K IOPS, respectively. The 990 PRO is based on Samsung's 7th Gen V-NAND flash, and it too is TLC. It packs 2 gigs of LPDDR4 DRAM cache, which helps the random performance. The endurance rating for this is 1200 TBW (terabytes written), which should be sufficient for most users. The Samsung 990 PRO is compatible with the PlayStation 5, but if you are going to use the 990 PRO on a PC, check out the Samsung Magician app that lets you track your drive's health, update its firmware, customize various settings, and more. The technical specs of the Samsung 990 PRO 2TB are given in the table below: Specification Value Form Factor M.2 2280 Interface PCIe Gen 4.0 x4, NVMe 2.0 NAND Flash Samsung V-NAND TLC Controller Samsung In-house Controller Cache Memory Samsung 2GB Low Power DDR4 SDRAM Sequential Read Speed Up to 7,450 MB/s Sequential Write Speed Up to 6,900 MB/s Random Read (4KB, QD32) Up to 1,400,000 IOPS Random Write (4KB, QD32) Up to 1,550,000 IOPS Random Read (4KB, QD1) Up to 22,000 IOPS Random Write (4KB, QD1) Up to 80,000 IOPS Operating Temperature 0°C to 70°C Reliability (MTBF) 1.5 Million Hours Endurance 1,200 TBW (Total Bytes Written) Get it at the link below: Samsung 990 PRO SSD 2TB NVMe SSD (MZ-V9P2T0B/AM): $369.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Glad im on the right boat. Tidal has lots of issues in terms of app and music mix, its worst than spot but its honest. Spot algo is very tendentious and they pess less to artists, so im comfortable with the tidal errors, for now.
    • Tidal won't monetize AI slop music, company says by David Uzondu Image via Tidal Tidal has announced an AI policy aimed at protecting artists and their crafts, as AI music generation tools continue to improve both in speed and quality. According to the music streaming platform, AI-generated music will be accepted, but these tracks will be held to a "higher standard" of content integrity. Next month, the company plans to auto-identify and tag these uploads. Listeners will spot a special icon next to content that algorithms flag as 100% AI-generated starting mid-July, and the platform hopes to expand this tag to partially generated songs as detection tech improves. Any AI music that exploits an artist's voice or likeness will be taken down, and Tidal will immediately block tracks associated with fraudulent activity, which includes artificial streaming and deceptive content that interferes with real creators. And finally, music that's 100% AI-generated will not be monetized. Tidal said there is "ongoing debate" about whether certain licensed synthetic models deserve payouts, so it's possible that this part will change in the future. Streaming platforms are absolutely getting flooded with AI-generated music because of how easy it is to pump out endless tracks every minute. To give you an idea of how "bad" it is, Deezer alone reported that synthetic uploads now make up about 44% of its daily intake, which translates to roughly 75,000 automated tracks hitting its servers every single day. Interestingly, Deezer found most people cannot tell the difference between human and machine creations, with an Ipsos study revealing that 97% of listeners failed to spot the AI-generated tracks. Spotify's CEO recently pushed back against listeners who call AI music "slop," urging people to stop using the term and instead embrace the creative potential of AI music. The Swedish platform partnered with Universal Music Group to test "legal and controlled" generative AI tools that let subscribers remix songs with AI.
