    Obama. Because anyone who would vote for the lying shell of a man that is McCain is an arrogant fool or an American

    7 day ban for derogatory comments towards Americans.

    I'd vote Obama tho I can't. But I bet that majority of Americans, with their so-low IQ will vote on McCain, just like they voted on Bush a second time round.

    Bill Clinton for President! He at least worked hard for peace. Peace and Love, Peace and Love!!

    I think Paris Hilton should be president... after all, she said she's "totally ready to lead the country." :eyebrow:

    so probably 98% of those who voted in the poll are not old enough to vote for real ......the point is? and why must we resort to bashing the yanks as stupid all the time, I step out of my house in the UK and meet just as many stupid people frequently, we have no right to place ourselves on a pedastal, its arrogant .....sorry to bitch but havent had my coffee yet :p

    I think we tend to bash george bush more than anything, rather than the whole nation. Considering that main of the great project logs come from the states.

    We do it in the hope that worldwide distaste for their republican leaders will actually affect their decision. It wouldn't matter if their global policies didn't have an effect on the rest of us, because you're right, there are just as many stupid people regardless of nationality. Also being arrogant against a country renowned for its arrogance, isn't it slightly satisfying?

    I for one, couldnt give a damn who becomes president of the US. Just like they dont care who runs our country! (PS - for those Americans who are reading this, we currently dont have a leader in the UK... just some schmuck who is pretending to lead but is really running our country into the ground).

    Whoever the US chooses, I hope he does better than the lame 'stealth taxing' pretender we currently have as our 'dear leader'.

    You have to consider the actual demographic of gamers. From what I understand it is more 20-30 year old people, if I'm wrong feel free to correct me. However you have to wonder how many vote and I think the totals are skewed since they are only polling a certain demographic.

    90% of the people I encounter on Xbox Live are total idiots. I fully believe many of these same people would vote for a turnip if given the chance.

    Generally speaking, Xbox gamers are going to be younger people, aged 14-30. The Republicans tend to appeal to older, married Americans, so this poll isn't really representative of anything.

    Ever think the other party thinks the same about Dem's... If I remember right, our economy starting going to **** when the dem's took over the lesislature. The fall of the economy when Bush took office, the legacy of Mr. Bill? I see a trend..

    woot for political flame wars!

    Although I am in Canada and dont vote in the US I would in fact vote for McCain. Why? Because on many of the topics that they are opposite on I am on the same side as McCain. Obama ain't near as bad as Hillary was but I still disagree with most of his opinions.
