The US Election Outside America?

from 2SER's Razors Edge Hosted by 2ser

A recent BBC survey shows that President Obama has widespread support outside of the United States. Of the 21 countries surveyed, Obama had an average approval rating of 50%, while Romney’s was just 9%. Romney’s approval rating surpassed Obama’s in only one country, and that was Pakistan. Furthermore, support for President Obama from key US allies like France, Turkey, the United Kingdom, and even Australia, is twice and even three times as high as Romney’s. But what will the support of populations outside the United States mean for the election, and what will it mean for the next four years? Josh Nicholas spoke to Jonathan Tasini from Essential Media Communications.
