I love Europe. It is an amazing place. Old buildings that are gorgeous and have history engrained in the smallest stone or carving. The food is amazing and the people are intriguing. The one thing that I have never fully accepted is the politics. Government run health care. Socialized business practices. High taxes. Lots of government control. Just isn't my thing.
Well today as I was reading through the news, I found an intereting poll that should have great resounding through American politics. The poll of over 6,000 people from several important European countries (Britain, Germany, Italy, France and Russia) showed that between 50% and 75% of the people would vote for Obama in the upcoming election if they could.
Now, I am no great lover of either of the major party candidates, nor do I dislike one more than the other. However, I do find it interesting that all of these countries are run by varying degrees of socialism, and they would choose Obama if they could. Hopefully everyone is drawing the same conclusion as I did. The people in Europe are saying that Obama fits best with their own semi-socialist beliefs. Not to discourage any Obama supporters, just know who you are voting for come November.
