It's a good question and deserving of a response. My only answer is that I do NOT think it is ok to do to citizens of other countries what I would not have done to citizens of my own country. However, my vote is restricted to the leaders of my own country. I want to vote for people who will first uphold our own Constitution. And if they have values strong enough to do that, they will also work for the same Freedoms in other countries. It has worked that way for more than 200 years. However, recently with Bush and Obama we're rolling back our own Freedoms at an alarming rate. Can I really trust these same people to fight for the Freedoms of those in other countries, if they are unwilling to do so for American citizens?
