    Interesting.

    Obama dropped an average of 80 bombs per day on the ME and North Africa during his presidency. The number of civilians murdered is impossible to calculate.

      For a USAmerican(or any other person), their primary concern would be their own safety, right?

      Unless they can form/support a major third party, they are effectively forced to a two-choice system

        The USA is not the world, and its citizens should start looking towards the welfare of the people their country murders.

          When both choices explicitely lead to mass murder its mandatory for any ethical person to do all they can to make some third outcome happen.

          Voting quietly for what may be slightly less mass murder but certainly is still mass murder is a pathetic and shameful way to chart a course forward. A handful of us have more dignity than that.
