Poll question: Non-Americans only: who is your candidate?
There have been lots of general polls on candidate preference, but since there is a sizeable international contingent here, I'm curious to see what the rest of the world makes of the Democratic contenders, and if there's an appreciable difference.

So, non-US only, please: if you had a vote, for whom would you cast it?

1. I voted for Clark...
because I think he has the best chance of bringing in the independents and they are the group that decides an election when it is close.

I also believe he is a man of integrity having watched him in the various appearances that are available on the web.

2. My vote was Kucinich
because he's closest to my position on the issues which most matter to me. If Cleveland were in Canada I could see him as a fine NDP MP. ;)

3. I voted for Dean
but I think, given the current situation and climate in the US, Clark probably has a better chance to win an election.

It comes down to a doctor vs Bush or a general vs Bush.

A Clark/Dean ticket would be ideal.

4. I'm a Canadian--for Clark! www.canadaforclark.com
See the site I just created today: www.canadaforclark.com
There isnt much for now, but hopefully with the help of some Canadian DU'ers who also support Clark, and Americans as well, we can do something with it.

email me at mail@canadaforclark.com if you have any ideas or comments!

5. British resident alien here..
I voted for Kerry because I think he has the experience and policies necessary to win. However, I really would like to see Kucinich as the next president.

8. Kucinich...
I think he's the only one, who would really try to change things.
All the others would just be as frustrating as Clinton was, who, if he ever had intentions to change something, just completely surrendered after a few month. It was just so terrible to see him after a few years.
I don't care for all those DLCers, as I don't care for stupid VW-whore Schröder.
Hello from Germany,
Dirk

9. I don't believe these results for a minute!
Dean & Clark supporters are either all (50/50 between the two boys) Foreigners or cheaters.

Take your pick:-)
