Are USA elections like ones we have in EU or real ones?

I hope to someday live in an era where the candidate for president inspires my respect and awe. Hasn't happened yet for me.

So, elections in the EU are phony? Is that what the OP is saying?
I won't vote for either one of them because neither one of them comes anywhere near agreeing with my socio-political philosophies.
I am not voting for either one.I will vote for a 3rd party assuming there is one that matches my views and if my state doesn't screw 3rd party candidates this year.
If there is no 3rd party candidate I like or my state screws 3rd parties I will simply not check that part of the ballot. Now if Romney picks Gingrich as his running mate I might vote for Obama just because of the fact the GOP had the nerve to not only prop up one of the biggest RINOs for president but to have the epitome of scumbag politicians Gingrich run as VP.
How many people died for your right to vote? Many and you just throw it away, that is just like spitting in their face. That is what I think
You will just throw your vote away.
I say there isn't party that would support my views in both Slovenia and Serbia. That is what I am saying. Last time there was guy who was I vote for him because he is good was Đinđić 10 years ago before CIA or SRS or DSS or mafia or whoever killed him.
I mean in Slovenia there isn't eurosceptic party or anti-NATO party or real communist party and all of these would get support from folks right away. I am saying that people aren't represented in good ways.
About Serbia - Well in Serbia there isn't I am socialist, conservative etc. There is I am ______ party. People see themselves via parties not views. That was in Serbia since 19. century.
EDIT: I need to make this clearer. So there was Communist party of Yugoslavia. They were commies and pan-Slavs. And all commies were pan-Slavs since that was policy. There was never Serbian communism only Yugoslav communism.
But I think this thing is in USA even bigger since there are 2 options.

Don't know how they are in the EU. In America it's all a little puppet show. Some singing and dancing on both sides, but ultimately scripted and invented. There is no real political competition nor are there true differences in candidates.
The American presidential election amounts to TV wrestling. Like the tv wrestlers they all pretend to hate each other, they bad mouth each other and put on a show to amuse the die hard idiots who thinks it's real.

I believe that no matter who is nominated, to a decent chunk of the population, each election is going to be seen as a lesser of two evils. No matter which segment that candidate attracts, those who are "ignored" will see that person as a "lesser evil" to an "evil." Further, there is a decent chunk of the population that is never pleased with anyone, ever.
