Seen from Paris, or even from the EU, the U S Presidential Election has not had a thundering effect on the opinions of Europeans !!! It has appeared somewhat "haphazard", dealing with American problems only !!!
If Americans want to influence World events, would they want a change in US foreign policy ? Have they, the electors, had a clear message from either candidate ?
Of course the "Overspending" in recent years has been evoked. The parity of the US Dollar has devalued, but does this not help maintain US exports ?
There are other silent arguments which could decide the result of this Presidential Election !
Not least of all, Obama has a permanent smile and a personal touch with the electorate which produces immediate confidence !
There is also a question which has not really been addressed. Mitt Romney is a Morman ! Can all Catholics and Protestants (and other religious creeds) really swallow all that this could involve ?
Finally, and just by chance, Obama is not quite 100% white just as the US is at a crossroad in its history ! During the next twenty years "non" whites (Blacks) will become the electoral majority.
It would seem that if Mitt Romney is finally elected as President, he would have to weigh very carefully the consequences of his policies !!!
