Interesting - while the rest of the world shakes its head at the thought that either candidate could actually end up as the figurehead for one of the most influential nations on earth.... I'm not aware that HC is thought of as being in the same category as Trump, at least in the UK.

Not all Canadians feel this way. Most everyone I know thinks Trump is an idiot, yes, but I haven't heard that about Hillary...at least around here.

Interesting - while the rest of the world shakes its head at the thought that either candidate could actually end up as the figurehead for one of the most influential nations on earth.... Can you elaborate on the head-shaking? I didn't even realize that Ms. Clinton's potential candidacy was viewed increduously - or even negatively - around the world, so I need to be educated. I was in Berlin and London five months ago and had a few (U.S.) political conversations with locals in each location. At the time, the idea of a Trump candidacy caused strong disbelief/alarm, but Ms. Clinton was either viewed positively or not mentioned. What's the feeling about her now? I'm not Sam obviously, but from my own personal experience I've not heard anyone reporting anything negative about HC as far as the race to the White House is concerned. Of course we get reports of various incidents that happen to be in the news on a certain day, such as the e-mail stories which are really " domestic" political problems or her latest position in the polls etc. but reports that I've read cover only what has/is happening or taking place and not an opinion about it and certainly I have never heard or read anything that would suggest that she isn't a viable person to hold the office of President. Maybe Sam reads different reports than I do! It's a total different scenario with Trump. Not only do the media report what he says but we also get reports of what other countries think of him too. Not surprising really as his hatred and vitriolic speeches/comments touches the citizens and leaders of virtually every other country. Obviously some in the US might not be too happy if she gets to be president because they don't like her as a person (having read so many threads on here) or maybe one doesn't agree with her policies but I have to say that as a person,if she is elected,she certainly isn't going to embarrass your country on the world stage in the same way as Trump is going to. As far as I can recall she's acted with total respect towards the rest of the world and its leaders while in the position of Secretary of State. I have no reason to think that it wouldn't continue. That is my personal view though and other international peas might disagree with me!

It's a shame because the entire neighborhood is really nice, except for their house--- which is right across the street from us! And now I have to look at not one, but TWO Trump signs!!
