I wanted to ask this question to Americans, do you think it is ok for people who don't have a stake in USA future to discuss USA events and politics?

I personally think it should be encouraged, but I had met a very small minority of people who think it's not ok.

What do you think?

As long as they use "Leader of the Free World" for their President without giving me a vote and the fact that American Policy is also very influential in my Country means that I don't have a vote but I sure as hell have an opinion, and a more educated one than many Americans. I follow American Politics and Policy daily.
