First of all, let me say I'm not a us citizen. I wouldn't vote if I had to choose between one rapist or the other. However, I recently talked to my family in Iran and they really hope Biden becomes president. Obama was the first president in modern history, that tried to improve relations with Iran. The nuclear deal brought an upswing and it was the first time you could import and export stuff to Iran. Trump quit this deal immediately and it hurt the people bad. Now, the Embargo is up again. Their currency has lost over 25% since Trump took office. People can hardly get by let alone save anything. Most of my family is what we would call SocDems and are anti Iran government. And even though a nuclear deal makes a revolution a little less probable, the general public would profit tremendously. Also, I think Trump would rather start war with Iran. But maybe that was just Bolten back then.

Just wanted to tell you, since we should have as much knowledge as possible, if we want to have a stand on voting.

    Solidarity forever! I have never met an Iranian I did not love. (I'm sure such people must exist, but I've yet to encounter them.) One of my best friends is Iranian, and one of my love interests in college was Iranian. Regardless of the bullshit election in the USA, I wish only the best for the workers of Iran!
