I don't agree. If the question is who will provide the best policies for something like job creation in the southern US (purely as an example) then it seems to me to be a very US-centric issue. No business of anyone else.

However, if the question at hand speaks more to America's relations with the world (and the UN, in this case) then it seems to me that it directly affects those citizens of the world. They (meaning we, the non-US citizens) don't get a vote, absolutely correct, but it is at least question that is worth discussing. That is because Americans can then reflect on how they are seen in the world (for all the good, and the bad). For those in the US that don't care about those perceptions, no problem, it is their vote and they can do as they wish. For those that do care, the discussions may be relevant.

I try to be careful not to support any one candidate, and I don't vote in the on-line polls that ask who will you vote for. I do participate in the debates as an interested observer.
