A third rate actor , who was a drug taking body builder is elected to high political office. How do you think this affects how the rest of the world views the USA ? Do you care ? Is it any different to Italy electing porn stars ? Space reserved for wit , humour and correct spelling.
I'm not really aware of what happened in California, so what I say is more a feeling than a firm opinion: * it's sad that somebody without a real program can be elected just because of his impact on the media. * it's great that somebody who isn't a professional politician for years can be elected.

er no. California is known as the state that leads US culture .

You lost.;) I know 2 men more who think the same. But they are only two men... :( On the other hand if we say that exceptions always exist, maybe you are right. ;)

It doesn't matter what it really is or what Americans know it as. You asked for foreign perception and you got it :) I have to agree with Corinna though, seems like a bit of a strange place :-D. I think Arnie being governor is quite cool though :cool: I hope he does well.
Despite the high cost of living, it remains popular. Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

Only as a bad example. We look to California as a leader in what NOT to do... "It takes a minimum of redesign to turn a crucifix into a pogo stick"
I know of CA as where "Silicon valley" is located. I also know that the living costs are high there [info from a friend of mine who stayed there :)] Smitha You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true. You may have to work for it, however. -- Richard Bach

Do you want to know why he's a famous body builder in the first place? BECAUSE HE WAS ONE OF THE FIRST BODY BUILDERS TO BUILD MUSCLE NATURALLY! While everyone else was pumping Decca et al, he was pumping iron. I don't know with certainty if he's never taken a roid in his whole life (because I'm not his father/shadow), but he never condoned the use of them publicly. And to judge him like that because he’s a body builder means you have issues, not him! Lemme guess, you're jealous because he gotten more pussy than you can dream of? Yeah, go ahead, deny it. BTW, just because someone's a bad actor (which he is) it doesn't mean he's stupid. I mean, unless you talk to the guy how do you know he's stupid? Jeremy Falcon

It means a lot of brutal forces, weapons, drugs, porns... This election does not bring anything new, maybe just one proof more.

He has a masters degree in Economics so unless they are easy to get in the states then I can't see him as being in any way stupid. So I see your point and agree with it. Regards, Brian Dela :-) http://www.briandela.com[^] IE 6 required.

For many guys that most would consider “macho” there are two types of women – the kind you sleep with and the kind you care about. You marry the second kind. Jeremy Falcon

I may as well say someone can't be a good governor because he is black or a woman. But since society doesn't jump down the throat of most prejudices, they aren't taboo and therefore ok to believe/say. :( Jeremy Falcon

My perception of the USA is this: I don't think the USA really exists, it's something they made up in Hollywood....:cool: Looking at it that way, it all makes sense. ;)
