Obama better for world economy:


Posted: Oct 10, 2012

(Reuters) - Twice as many business executives around the world say the global economy will prosper better if incumbent President Barack Obama wins the next election than if his Republican challenger Mitt Romney does, a poll showed.

 

Democrat Obama was chosen by 42.7 percent in the 1,700 respondent poll, compared with 20.5 percent for Romney. The rest said "neither".

The result was different among respondents in the United States, where a slim majority thought Romney would be better for their businesses than Obama.

If the poll is correct (and that's anyone's guess), Romney leads in the US, Obama in the world. We're electing a president of the US, not a global one. Too much importance is put on what other countries think of us. We should vote in our own best interest and let the other countries be run they way they want.

LOL! That is actually funny! It only says the "world" - wants to see the USA fail !! nm

In searching for your information I found this from Reuters - A little different than what you have

(Reuters) - Republican challenger Mitt Romney has argued for more than a year that he would do a better job of boosting the sluggish U.S. economy than President Barack Obama, and new polling data indicates that voters may be coming around to his point of view.

On a side note, the full article from where you got that also said this -

It still doesn't say which countries were polled though. Libya? Germany? Kenya?

Yes, I found that one, also preferring Obama. BTW, I included the stuff you - pointed out. I'm fair and balanced. :) nm

Yep, that's because he wants to spread the wealth - OHMT

[ In Reply To ..]
not only here, but around the world. That's why he likes things like cap & trade. Our energy costs "would necessarily skyrocket" (Obama's own words) so that other countries could get our money. He uses the word "fair" all the time, but I don't think it's fair to take money that someone has worked hard for to give to someone who doesn't want to work, and I don't think our money should be spread around the world to other countries.

This country became the greatest in the world in a relatively short time because we have the freedom to pursue our dreams. If other countries want to prosper, then maybe they should look at our model. Throw out the dictators and develop a free capitalist republic like our own.

God Bless America!
