Will you leave the country if Obama wins?

I'm just curious, since there's actually people who said they would.

Stephen Baldwin On Fox News: If Obama Wins, I'll Leave The Country


On a lighter note

If Sarah Palin wins, Tina Fey is 'leaving Earth!'

"If she wins, I’m done," Fey tells TV Guide. "I can’t do that for four years. And by ‘I’m done,’ I mean I’m leaving Earth."

Besides, when Obama wins, a lot of factions will test him, US will not be a safe place, but at least it'll survive.

If Obama wins I'm going to take a four year vacation from fear and the bad economy. I will treat my ills to a decent health care plan. I will take pride in the intelligent leader representing my country. Ahhh...what a nice vacation it will be. At least I hope so.

And where would Baldwin go? Considering America is the most conservative developed country in the world he's out of luck. Third world countries? They're just poor but the moment they become rich they'll be just as liberal as Europe. I should know, I live in one. But then again there's always the Middle East and other Muslim nations.

If McCain wins, rest assured we non-Americans will hate you even more. Can you say "more boycott?"

It won't be safe? What did Bush do to make it safe? Oe any other president? You get where I'm going? how does the federal government protect you? it is the local governments that are in charge of you safeties.

On a lighter note, I will sit back and watch as America is once a again look at as the mother country to the world. Not the sinister babysitter.

AAC

what country America is GONE.

We have been lead down the wrong path for years byt both the dems and republicans there both the same.

Oh for the Love of God, do not vote for McCain/Palin if it means we lose Tina Fey!!! That is not a fair trade!

If Obama wins I'm going to take a four year vacation from fear and the bad economy.

I know Republicans and other people are balking at the idea of Obama being prez.

Which of course there is nothing wrong with, if it's based on fact and not on the phantom arguments of him being a communist/antichrist/(gasp)muslim.

But the rest of the world wants Obama - skipping the country probably wouldn't help Baldwin.

I know that my respect for the US would be restored if Obama was its leader.

McCain/Palin just seems like some sort of practical joke.

The possibility of an assassination of course would undoubtedly rise - lots of nuts want to shoot political leaders, but this would be a strong possibility.

In that regard, it might lead to some instability, but who knows...

HAH! YEAH RIGHT! I will leave the country if McCAIN wins!

Which is actually a very important point considering how much a President is involved in our international affairs

Geez, it Stephen Baldwin STILL trying to milk his 15 minutes? Really, what kind of a point is he trying to make there?

Actually....maybe we (America) can FINALLY be rid of him! Go Obama!

Eh, this happens every election cycle.

I can remember 4 years ago everyone was wearing t-shirts that said if Bush won they were moving to Canada. This was all everyone talked about then to, about how they would leave the country if Bush won.

Pretty sure most of them stayed.

Sadly, our nation's enemies are licking their chops right now. If Obama wins, Biden is correct, our nation's new leader will be tested internationally and domestically . I highly doubt that any overseas travel would be safe throughout the duration of his presidency. My money is on a 50 foot ketch in the Caribbean. Stay put or stay mobile.

They all stayed after they realized how bad the socialized health care was in Canada.

I'm still waiting for all the Hollywood morons that said if Bush won they'd leave to leave. Unless by "leaving" they just meant to buy mansions in France or something.

I wont leave. But if I hear AWB talk a great deal of what I own will be reported "stolen" and hidden.

Oh dear, pathetic "white flight" mentality because a man of African decent is elected to the highest office in the republic

The Boer or Afrikaner philosophy being represented in some quarters of America is excreable. Even Sarah Palin was calling for the termination of the lynch mob at rallies - it is truly disturbing.

Haha Stephen Baldwin?!

Who cares, thats just more incentive for undecided voters to go for Obama.

If all the idiots that promised to leave last time had actually kept their word, we wouldn't be about to complete the Axis-of-Taxes, Obama, Pelosi, Reid!

If Obama wins then I will stay right the hell where I am. I do not support Obama and really hope he loses but the bottom line is that i'm an American and whoever becomes president deserves the respect that goes with the office. I'm not saying that you should have to respect the person, just the responsibilities that person holds.

When I first started learning about politics back in the olden times, you could have a civil disagreement with someone else yet still have respect for each other. Not anymore, now people "hate" each other for their political beliefs. People always like to blame our leaders for the woes of our Country but they are not the only ones to blame.

I agree with you here.

I'm strongly opposed to an Obama presidency, but if it turns out he wins, I'll deal with it. I'll raise my voice and stand up against everything he does that goes against what I believe in, the same way I would for McCain. There's nothing else I can do from my position except fight for what I think is right and make sure the people my country elected know about it.

Abandoning your country is ignorant. If anyone actually left for something like this, they would not be welcome back as far as I'm concerned.
