Here the debattes are more about the environment, social justice( we have a much bigger social supportive system and a insurance for everyone, paid by the citizens and supportet by the state). Also has the military almost no influence in politics or elections, e.g. almost no minister served in the military(correct me if i am wrong). Or religion is never a topic here in Germany/Europe, because this is a thing for privacy, it is not important in politics for my regards, except of course, no one want to have a fanatic, ignorant leader at the head of state, which we can see easily in countries like Afghanistan for over 7 seven years. And since this is not only possible in the muslim world, this can also be possible in the Christian World, like we saw during the Crusades. Or any religion has the potential to do this when we forget about the archivements we gained during the age of enlightments. ok, too much said here and most likely ab bit chaotic, so i stop here. Greetings and i hope to see more on this website, I really enjoy reading it. From Germany ah, dam, cklicked the wrong button, sry for that.

I am now reading your blog since the beginning and it is quite interesting to see how it evolves. Also i gain some more insights to the procedures in the American Electionsystem, which is quite differnet than the one here in Germany. Here are the canditates also elected by their party-members, but not in a whole countrywide "tour", but by delegates which where sent in by the regional base. also here are like 5 mayor partys which will normally be present in the "Bundestag", similar to your Congress. But to explain the full procedure would take some time and i don´t know, wether this would be interesting or not. Also the political topics are a lite bit so, finally i´m gonna post something here.
