When asked who he thought should be the next U.S. president, he expressed no personal preference and said it is for the U.S. citizens to make the decision.

"What matters is that once someone is in office, we have to watch and see if that person will make -- bring about some changes in policy or continue the same old path. I think that's more important than who is actually voted in office," he said.

He did speak of Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin and said, "I wish that we would have talked together when we were both mayors."

Ahmadinejad also said that he is ready to speak with the presidential candidates before the press and discuss and debate world issues with them.
