Let's face it no matter what country you're in the US president is a common topic of discussion. I can't remember the last time a world news story didn't mention Obama or Bush. So the question is who do you think should be the next US president?
The top 3[spoiler][/spoiler] likely candidates at the moment are:
Democrat:
Hillary Clinton
Joe Biden
Howard Dean
Republican:
Jeb Bush
Mike Huckabee
Michelle Bachmann
Personally I'd love to see Scott Walker run for president.

I have no idea who these people in, & I really don't care who is president for your country next. Also, the last time I heard anything about American politics on the news was at least 3 months ago.
Also, Australia has had no presidents.

1. Reddit is not a news station.
2. BBC = British Broadcasting Company.
3. I live in Australia.

Is it shown on TV? No.
There is no primary news station in Australia.

well the way the system works is really busted anyways, it turns into a "i'll vote for A so B doesn't win" or "i sorta like A i guess" rather than "i believe in C" because the voting system is flawed horribly
this is because of whoever has the most votes win which sounds find in practice but.
Let's say Candidate A wins the election with 25%, with Candidate B having 23%, Candidate C having 22%, Candidate D having 16% and Candidate X having 14%. Now it makes sense that Candidate A won, he had the most votes but that's more than 75% that didn't want Candidate A to win.
So along comes the next election and the voters have lost faith in Candidate X and Candidate D, instead voting for Candidate A and Candidate B, who have some of the policies that Candidate X and Candidate D had but also a few they don't agree on but you gotta work with what you get. Candidate A wins again, followed by Candidate B and Candidate C with similar numbers to last time.
Comes the next election Candidate C is abandoned and split in two, with the voters voting for similar reasons before or to prevent the other one from getting into office because they disagree with them. This takes away votes from Candidate A as well, in a sense, and Candidate B wins the election with a 55% to 45% pool and now the political voting is now a stale pool of no actual choices being made but going with the "best option" which is dumb.

No, what I'm saying is that we need to overhaul the whole system. There's probably a third party who has more of your backass views anyways Corn, and best of all there'd mostly likely be less corruption via cash slipped in politicians pockets because they're be smaller parties.
