Such is your right, to vote secretly for whomever you wish. Charest may be Colgate while Trudeau is Crest - and to you, there may be no difference between Coke and Pepsi. But trust me: This simple choice - assuming they don't collude, form a cartel - changes everything.

Afghanistan? IMHO, we Canadians participated to show clearly that Afghans can do whatever the hell they want, but they will never ever again provide a place for people to attack America. ===== Obama generally avoided getting involved in nonsense abroad Trump made a point of not getting involved. Heck, Biden withdrew from Afghanistan.

Why did Clinton drop bombs on the bridges in Belgrade? Why did Bush Jnr drop bombs in Iraq? ===== Trump is correct. America won the Cold war. As they say, move on.

Precisely, no more NATO.

America is some 330 million people doing Gawd-knows what. Is America occupied by corrupt Khazarian? WTF? America occupied by Lutherans? Possible. White supremacists. But America controlled by Armenians? ==== Or are we talking of Jewish Armenians?
-
Woodrow Wilson "defined" Ukraine. To be progressive, these foreigners from abroad are now known in English as "Ukrainian". ===== Putin and so-called Ukrainians are doing what Trudeau Snr avoided for Canada. In Canada, we get along. This was the main idea of Trudeau Snr - a federal state - counterweights.

As a Canadian, I recently drove through Vermont and New Hampshire. I stopped in Starbucks. Bought Big Macs. I saw the people at the beach. Simply looking at a person, hearing them, I could predict what the person thought of Trump. ===== America is foolishly divided.
-
There is a huge misunderstanding about people like Putin and Gates. Gates pays for things. Trudeau Jnr and Putin command things. ==== How rich is Putin? Well, how rich is Joe Biden?

How will this end? Has the US federal government become a Ponzi scheme? ==== Harper wisely said that Americans will figure out a way. But at over 150% of GDP, I wonder how. Huh? Japan's government debt is well over 200% of GDP. (Because of Harper, Trudeau Jnr's spending means we're still below 100%.) ===== In macroeconomic theory, if the growth of government debt is greater than real GDP growth, it's a Ponzi scheme. -The government is borrowing faster than the economy can generate tax revenues. -But wait. The government never dies. For you on the right or left, think: the State never dies. ==== As I always say, whether in Japan, Russia or Canada, it is not how the government/State pays - whether my credit card, debit card, my name on a loan - what's the difference? No difference. It is what the government bureaucrat politician buys.

You Americans can send young guys to die abroad. You proved that in Vietnam. You won the Cold War and the Soviet Union is no more. ===== But now, Trump is correct. There is no reason for any American soldier to die abroad.
-
As a foreigner, I have been thinking about this. Bush, Clinton: they're wrong. Trump is right. You won the Cold War - back off. ===== America is a wonderful country.

Where is Biafra? ==== I prefer our previous federal PM. While I disagreed, he had a clear idea of a federal State. And I've always liked his quote : "He would make the West Island the Danzig of the New World." Who was the "he"? Duplessis? Laurier? Lévesque? Dunno. But Trudeau`s quote makes plain why I love America.
