I wonder why what the US does is of a concern to the world, yet what China does is not ????
Oh, we do discuss China quite a bit over here.
After the Nobel peace prize was given to one of their dissidents, they seem to have a horn in their sides towards this little corner of the world.
Ethiopia, Sudan, Syria and South Africa are other places that has seen quite a bit of news coverage lately...

On a US centric board like SRP, it would seem natural to me that the US elections are a bit more interesting.
As you stated yourself, you really don't care all that much about other nations, unless you actually live there.
So, not much point in discussions on other countries when the participants really only care about the US, no?
