Personally, I've not been all that impressed with any of the candidates on EITHER side.

Okay, don't beat me down, but I liked the approach Ross Perot took in 1992. There are a plethora of facets to running our country, but the public, no matter what they say, ultimately wants our country to prosper economically. Ross Perot was a successful business man that wanted to run the US as a business. Yes, there is a lot more to it, but if we go by economy issues (gas prices seems to top the list for most) then, I feel that is the primary focus a president should take.

As for the "popularity" of the US. I'm not sure we've ever been that "popular" with other countries, except in our own minds. Kind of the alpha male syndrome....

right now anyway, the leading Candidates for Republicans are Mit Romney, Rudolph Guiliana, and to a lesser degree john Mcaon, the Democrates, more of a 2 way race bween Hilary Clinton and Barak Obamam(American American) intrestingly enough , if all polls are correct right now, Clinton could end up as the first Female President or Obamam as the first Black President,

I am not taking side in the forum yet, just trying to see where USA citizens stand and where those who live outside our country stand

Useless trivia but I thought it was cute....

There was a report out this morning that Dick Cheney's wife (current U.S. VP) has been tracing their family history and discovered that Obamam is a very very distant relative.

Obamam's spoke person's response was... "There is a black sheep in every family."

The newest Republican candidate is Fred Thompson. I'm sure there will be comparisons to Ronald Reagan...the acting thing. Ha! Ha!

Too bad we can't put all of these candidates into a jar and mix them up. We might come up with a worthy product.

Just a suggestion.

A blender would work well I think! lol

I thought John Edwards would have been a good choice, but apparently he isn't as popular as I thought he would be. Obama would be a good choice I think, but America is already horribly divided in the area of race, I would be interested to see how having a minority in the white house would affect things. (a side note, Obama isn't purely African American). Same thing with Clinton, as far as Minorities go. However I just don't relish the idea of a Bush Clinton dynasty. Not to mention the history that the Clinton's have with campaign finance and doing shady deals. Perhaps preventing that drama from starting would be a good idea.

As far as republicans go, I don't think there is a best choice of any of them. They are all (Ron Paul might be an exception) ideologically aligned with Bush and the war machine at the moment, and I don't think keeping that status quo is at all a good idea.

I beleive Ron Paiul just dropped out, to bad ALL there others don't do the same, let's keep in practice and let the Supremem Court decide who winds, it worked once (not weel) but it worked
