Barack Obama is going to steal Japanese car-making jobs.

Japanese favorable views:
Obama = 48.6%
McCain = 13.3%

The Japanese like Obama because they
know that America is a country full of
racist rich white guys.

Its pretty funny that the Japanese
think discrimination is so prevalent in
the US and that it doesn't exist in Japan.

Not only can't they vote for him, but they'd be voting for him based on the effect he might have on THEIR country, not ours.

Which is exactly why they can't vote.

Well it depends on whether or not you consider 8% to be a "landslide". Compared to the 2000 and 2004 elections, yes.

It sort of makes sense when you look at it a little more closely.

Because America has such a wide variety of citizens (and other residents), racism is a very real part of its daily happenings. As a result of that, America produces a lot of media discussing racism and everyone's ideas on how to deal with it. Our cultural exports include many Hollywood movies and TV shows that talk about racism, and so other countries get to see that about us.

In Japan, the vast majority of the citizenry is Japanese, and minorities are very small. Because they don't have to deal with people of different races and cultures interacting and creating racism every day, they have no need to discuss it. They see America talking about it all the time, them talking about it almost never, and come to the conclusion that we have more racism and they don't have any.

The truth, of course, is that they are more likely to be racist and even xenophobic due to lack of contact with different people, and also due to a culture that emphasizes conformity. They just don't see it that way because America is always discussing racism.

Did you guys see how much turmoil and crap went down in the economy in the last month? Japan's economy took a pretty big hit even as they're in the midst of their own recession. This crap could've been avoided if the Untied States had regulated and kept their sub-prime estate shit in control. This includes both Congress oversight of the market AND the Executive doing its job by enforcing regulations. If one or the other, but especially the Executive branch since it was really the duty of the Executive to enforce regulations, had shut down this housing boom in its bud, we wouldn't have had to borrow Billions from the future to pay. And Japan wouldn't have had to do the same.
