The truth is that the US has enough money and resources to push everyone else about discounting China and so whomever wins the Presidential election will figure hugely in what happens to the rest of the world.
The current crop of Republicans apparently only care about the rich white Americans in their party and are completely ignorant about the rest of the world. The gaffes Romney committed whilst on his sojourn around the world recently certainly underline that ignorance.

Very true. America in general only care what happens to them. I would not call my close /extended family,as rich( well off -yes) but nearly all are registered Republicans. Other than for very local issues( Brothers & Sisters are UK born).(Lots only have a vague attachment to the Mother country - but its a Walt Disney type view after the first generation
)They have no interest in what is happening in the UK or for that matter in Europe. This is a sweeping statement I understand but true from the people I have met.
I will unless something major changes my mind vote Republican. Fell for the patter of Obama. Not again.
