A Martian is asked the same question and has two days in which to decide. He views the fundamental ideas on which America was formed: Its Constitution and the premises that follow from it. He looks closely at each candidate and arrives at the conclusion neither is that different in the broad sense of their ideas and values. He excludes givens such as race and religion because a martian would not know the power these things have for some. He then decides a fundamental premise of American society, one on which it was founded and still believes is the right of the individual to live their life freely and to make their own decisions based on their own values and reasons. The Martian then views each candidate's position on a variety of topics. Minor differences appear but they are subtle and not conclusive. He then reviews a woman's right to choose how and when she is to be a mother. This is a distinct difference between them. He decides Barack Hussein Obama represents the right of that women to lead her life in freedom making decisions based on her values. He does not extrapolate (we can). BHO is his choice given what the Martian had determined is an important value to Americans.
