So, visiting another country is all it takes to prove you're a foreign policy expert? |

McCain toured Iraq for no other reason but to say "I went to Iraq and Obama didn't, so I'm better on foreign policy".
If that's all it fucking takes, then WHY DOESN'T OBAMA DO THE SAME???!!
Let's say Obama goes to visit 5 COUNTRIES in 10 Days... WHICH COUNTRIES SHOULD HE VISIT????
Here's my list:
Zimbabwe Iraq Israel China Cuba
YOURS? :popcorn:
(Oh, and for those who need it, don't step in the :sarcasm:).

2. How would that give him foreign policy experience? |
|
If that is mccain's argument that just because he went to Iraq he therefore knows how to handle the situation - it is ridiculous. And for Obama to do it on a grander scale would only be more ridiculous, if indeed he thought a ten day trip would equal some level of fp experience.
The best response to bs is rarely more bs.

5. I don't think he has to visit other countries |
|
but doing some kind of a short world tour would be worth it. This coming from someone who has lived overseas for almost 5 years. I think Cuba would be a bad idea.
My list:
Japan China Iraq Israel Jordan or Egypt Germany England

9. That would be a good idea as well |
|
The only problem is that as soon as he steps in one of those two areas, he pretty much will give a hint that he may go to the other. I'm not sure how safe that would be for him in that situation.
