REFLECTIONS ON SECOND PRESIDENTIAL M DEBATE

Submitted by sam (Canada), Oct 17, 2012 at 15:03

I do not live in US but I wish to make an observation. Watching these presidential debates, past and present, I am amazed to notice that American audiences need theatrical debates to chose their candidates. How a candidate walks, talks and looks at the camera is marked. A man with substance, elegance and past experience may not stand a chance in front of an orator, mob pleaser,with no solid agenda, past experience or international respect.

US security may be in danger in the hands of a novice with background in doubt and obvious leanings towards terrorist groups like Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood! The latest is Benghazi assassination of a US diplomat and the White House response and now secretary of state taking responsibility. Well then, resign!
