Bill “Yeah, I’m Still An Unrepentant Terrorist” Ayers, a close personal friend of President Obama, is so far off to the left that you need a telescope to find him.
“Every resident of a country with an American military base within its borders ought to have the right to vote in an American presidential election,” Ayers said. “That causes a different kind of way of thinking, doesn’t it? I mean, imagine, you know, if hundreds and hundreds of millions of people voting for the American president from countries as diverse as Cuba and Italy and, you know, wherever. (indistinguishable) I think it’s a great idea. What do you think?”
What do we think? Well, Willie, we think you have it backwards. We have military bases in those countries because, at one time or another, we saved their asses from some oppressor.
Seems to us that if fair was fair, we should be able to vote in their elections, not vice versa.

And Americans should be allowed to vote in the elections in those countries. Since we're protecting them.
Hey - these two were involved in some pretty serious crimes! Here they are, free as birds, teaching our college students, and it occurred to me that THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO VOTE DUE TO THEIR CRIMINAL HISTORY! Is that the case? Since when did we change our laws to allow felons to vote?
Only in the US does a whacko like this talks his BS and nothing happens to him. If this was an Iranian or Russian or Egyptian (whatever) citizen he would have been dead 30 years ago.
It is after all one of the reasons why America is so great and I love it. However, I believe that he will get his one day. So let him talk his crap. His comeuppance shall be grand.
Sure, they can vote in American elections, when we can levy taxes on them. On top of whatever tax rate they are already paying, of course.
No representation without taxation.
Why isn't this guy in prison for life?
Besides, isn't it about time for Ayers to go write another book for Obama and create some more ideologue fantasies?
Let's just send those countries a bill for all the protection we've provided over all those years and for keeping their economies alive because of the jobs these bases provide locals, and pull out of them. Let them take care of themselves for awhile and they won't have time to worry about our elections. That would make more sense to me.
They'll say or do ANYTHING to increase the level of liberal, uneducated voters. ANYTHING to further the destruction of this great country.
Hey bozobilly: If you want to give up YOUR sovereignty then by all means, go LIVE SOMEWHERE else but don't you DARE PRESUME you speak for ANY AMERICAN PATRIOTS you sick dumb bastard.
Thanks for the suggestion Bill, obviously you don't mean it since you don't believe in free, democratic elections. Here's a counter suggestion, you and your commie battleaxe wife should pack your bags and leave, the greatest contribution you could make to the progress of the United States is leaving it permanently...and take Obama with you.
