Re: Who should Pakistanis vote in US Presidential elections?
If we're looking at candidates strictly in terms of their policy towards Pakistan, then I'd have to say McCain, then possibly Romney.
Over the past 30 years or so, the general trend has been for Republican administrations to develop closer ties with Pakistan...this batch of candidates doesn't seem to be bucking past trends either...from Pakistan's perspective, the worst possible outcome would have to be Obama winning the election. The man is clamoring for US aid to Pakistan to be cut, and has been talking about bombing Pakistan (and Iran) for the past 4 years (he first brought up the idea of targeted strikes against Pakistan when he was running for the Senate in 2004).
