You don't think that the different interest intensities have something to do with that the US more affects the rest of the globe, than for example a european nation affects the US...!? If I would set up a series of threads about internal german elections, the simple truth is that most people in america would not give a damn for it. We just had a political drama in Hessen, with lies and party rebellion - do you care at all? Be honest, you don't. Germany is cars, Sauerkraut, Bratwurst, Bier and Third Reich, and that pretty much sums it up. You can see it in the occasional Germany-threads I had launched over time - the interest always was limited, and what was there seem to have coming more from non-Americans than Americans.
And after the past 48 hours i must say i find this constant extremist polarisation "it's either american conservative model or it must be socialism" a bit tiresome. It's in several threads now, ad nauseum. Man, it borders paranoia, i sometimes think.

Yes, we get involved in the American elections, but mostly because America is involved alot of places. I dont see why thats a mystery.

I have a good idea as to what it will be but hey why not.
Europe is in bed with Obama, so you shouldnt even bother.
