U.S. residents aren't really aware of the world outside their borders. For a long time you have been able to get away with this, but the rest of the world is steadily catching up - now that you owe us 2601.8 billion dollars (including 500-odd billion each to China and Japan) you should start wondering what might happen if we lowered the boom.
The rest of world is much more interested in what goes on within the United States - for one thing, if you elect another economically ignorant Republican, our chances of eventually getting our money back will be seriously diminished, and if he were as war-like and diplomatically inept as his predecessor we would have even more problems with justifiably peevish Arabs.
Consequently the rest of the world has every reason to prefer Barak Obama to John McCain, and if you knew what was good for you - Jim clearly doesn't - you should too,
and I can't see any good reason for not telling you so.
