[QUOTE="MarcusHill, post: 48539205, member: 187047"] Like it or not, they're the most powerful nation on the planet. They could end the world single handedly. If their economy takes a nosedive, so does ours. They also have a choice of two parties, Far Right and Further Right. My fear is that if McCain and Palin get elected, she'll try to push her anti-science agenda. If she can influence the appointment of a Supreme Court judge (a massive power of the executive which is often underrated) who agrees with her creationist nonsense, it could lead to a turn in the judicial tide currently preventing the curtailment of science education in the US. That's good for us in the short term - America will have to import scientists from us, among other places - but in the long term it will be a massive blow against scientific advances worldwide. Furthermore, I really don't like the thought of our main military ally being led by a man who was fervently for the war in Iraq. [/QUOTE]
