      Hopefully, no one in any foreign country saw it. Hey, wait . . .

  • You may give up hope now, because I watched it.  It made me glad that it was a debate for another country's election, not my own country's election.  My neighbour across the hall is 82 years old.  He doesn't hear well, so I know everything he watches on TV.  He loves politics, even foreign countries' politics, so he watched the debate.  He turned it off.  I've never heard him turn off politics on TV before.  I thought it was boring.  If I were an American, I don't think anything I saw in the debate would have been useful for me to decide how to vote.

      You’re absolutely correct, very little about policies was barely even touched. Say, what would it take for me to get an Argentine visa in the next 30 days?

    Policies were mentioned. ie. Biden is going to: 
    Pack the court,
    Get rid of the filibuster,
    Raise taxes,
    Supports the Green New Deal (Biden Plan),
    No real public option for OC...it is just Medicaid (if someone is poor enough to qualify) 
    Will rejoin the Paris Accord

    Trump:
    Will continue to reduce taxes
    Bring home our manufacturing jobs
    Will continue criminal justice reforms
    Opposes packing the court
    Opposes the Paris Accord
    Wants to correct education to teach people to be proud of our country

    I am sure there is more but this is what I remember without googling.

  • It would take the end of COVID-19.  During normal times, United States citizens may stay 90 days without a visa.  On the 90th day, you must leave the country.  You may return to Argentina 24 hours later, then you can stay 90 more days without a visa.  It's also the same for Canadians.  If someone does that indefinitely without taking steps to become a citizen, they'll get kicked out.

    I have a cousin from Minnesota who moved here when he was 18.  He applied for permanent residency, but I don't know all of the details about how it's done.  He said he thought it was easy.  He became a naturalized citizen, and he's happy here.

    It was what I was expecting and that's why I didn't bother watching it. I read the highlights off of Twitter.
