Message addressed to my southern neighbors: You should all be celebrating.
I followed the results on American and Canadian TV stations. The big thing, the focus, the excitation tonight were all about the Democratic Party and it's 2 main candidates.

Nobody (or almost) questions the fact that your next president will be a democratic candidate.

A Light Blue or Dark Blue...
We,outside of the USA, don't care which Blue you will be choosing as long as it is Blue...

Red is synonym of nightmares and lies.
Red is synonym of money power and treason.
Red is synonym of war and death.


But the redness of the Republican party is not the main focus tonight.

Not for me and neither for my friends: Canadians, Europeans, Africans...

We, the rest of the world, want America to become more human, more humble, less interventionist. This can happen only if there is a big change in the White House.


Here indulge me to quote a Canadian poll: a percentage (sorry I don't remember the exact number) of our voting population is ready to give up it's right to vote in our Prime Minister election in exchange to be granted the right to vote in Your Election Day.

Think about it...

We all support you in your fight against the bushcos. We all support you so you can find your Voice again.

On a more personal note, if you allow me, dear neighbors.

All of last fall, I would had chosen Obama.
In the last few weeks I was wavering between him and Hilary.
This morning I would had voted for her.
Tonight I would had voted for him.

Why can't you guys find a way to have both of them together?

I know, I know, it's not how it works in the US of A.
But one can dream.

To paraphrase a dear friend: In any case, tonight was Your night.
And there many more to come.

So Cheers to you American friends.

1. My friend, you and your fellow Canadians...
Will indeed be ecstatic come our election day--and maybe even well before that. We are going to make a change--not just in party, but in direction--come this November. And it will be a direction you'll really like.

Thanks you for your kind words. :D

2. "We, the rest of the world,"
are not helping.

Consider the habitual bigotry aimed at our left. You know the commonly used Rovianisms. The real brains (even in California) have been ridiculed for decades, fueled by Hayek/Friedman fanboys.

The disease is not unique to us. Le Penn?

Empire, that's the difference. We're trapped in it and you are all sitting, watching, contemplating colloquial euphemisms for torture.


We, the rest of the world, want America to become more human, more humble, less interventionist. This can happen only if there is a big change in the White House.


No, it is a planetary problem. Even for corporations, as they too are subject to Climate Change.
