The Official 2008 Presidential Election Thread

[David75]

Good stuff masa.
About foreign affairs, I'd much rather have a president focus on domestic issues, and have a solid domestic background than a president who will concentrate on foreign relations. We have enough problems in this country than to be worrying about the rest of the world, I think having a good Secretary of the State and Secretary of Defense is necessary though.
You have to help yourself before you can help others...

Being a little more aware of the countries outside the US isn't forgetting domestic issues...
And from what you see of the subprime mortgage problem, splashing all over the world and backfiring to the US.... I guess you can understand you just can't remain blind to what happens outside.
To me a prez is all about world relations, other sub prez personel can handle most of the Domestic affairs, the prez being there to give directions.
That's how I see things for any democratic country. I may be wrong though
