Oh pls...Mccain doing a better job? He will only screw things up
further in the middle east by continuing the Bush failed policies
in Iraq. And given his military background, he has a
rather shallow minded view of the world and how diplomacy
works.
Talking about photogenic, Sarah Palin fits the bill more than
Obama.
And Obama now has Clinton as his secretary of state and has
assembled an economic dream team, something Mccain would not have
been able to do f he were to be the president.
I forsee 2009 to be a very good year for international relations
between foreign governments with Obama as a US president.
Hrm, the way i see it Bush's policies have already taken a
momentum of its own in the Middle east. I don't see how
Obama's going to be able to do much to affect it, the American
people are already too hyped up on the fear of the crazy terrorists
who hate America's Freedom and Democracy.
On the other hand, the hate for America in the Middle East is no
longer able to be resolved by just American forces pulling out.
They won't forget it, and they would hit back any chance they
get.
And the vicious circle continues.....
You view it as the economic dream team, but i see it as the
appointment of people who propagated the problem in the first
place. Though his appointment of Steven Chu as Energy Secretary is
a surprise, a scientist actually in a place of political power?
While i do see Obama improving international relations with the
world, the American people as a whole (From my impression)
still sees their way of life as the non negotiable way of life for
everyone else, despite it causing so much problems for the rest of
the world.
Obama's real problem is not going to be with the world, it's
going to be with his own people.
