John, don`t get me wrong, I`m not a fan of the
U.S. Democrats, if I would be American, I would
most probably call myself an Independent.

As an American, I would be conservative on
fiscal issues (deficite !!) and immigration,
but liberal on foreign policy and social
issues. That would proably be kind of a
Colin Powell, John Sununu, Dick Lugar or
Chuck Hagel "moderate Republican"....

And since we are (economically) still doing
rather well here in Switzerland, foreign policy
is by far the most important issue for me when
it comes to the U.S. elections.

And there I am much, much closer to Obamas and
Powells pragmatic view of the world, than to
McCains "neoconservative" doctrin.

Believe me, we got more than enough of this over
the past 8 years....

Apart from that, those "Robo-calls" by the
Republicans are simply pathetic....

....and therefore Colin Powell was 100 % correct
to rebuke those "low-life" tactics.
