Bradley Effect

lol, no bradley effect anywhere in the US..

except perhaps a very slight one in Iowa, and of course, in Arkansas..but that was more of a PUMA effect.

and lol.. Europe will probably elect a true minority leader in one of their countries when we are very very very very old. Only the UK has a chance of doing it within the next 3 decades..

germany electing a turk chancellor.. lolz.. wont happen!

I think phil has a point here. Europe is much more xenophobic than America. There is a complicated racial problem here for sure but we are much more accepting of immigrants of every stripe. If we were to exclude the deep south, I would say America is much less racist and xenophobic than Europe.

^^^^^

This is correct. America is far less racist then Europe, with the exception of the deep south. In the deep south racism is well and alive, on both sides.

The US is far better then Europe in most aspects. Really the only Euro countries I would live in is Germany and the United Kingdom.

Does that mean we are more Liberal than Europe?

In some ways yes, in some ways No.

Well the Greens will have a Turkish chairperson in a couple of days...

Well, good for them.

Hopefully the CDU controls germany forever.
