Meanwhile...


In his spare time, while not campaigning, Senator Barrack Obama has initiated a ceasefire in the Niger Delta. Critics of Senator Obama's foreign policy experience must be shocked to see that his standpoint of negotiations and openness to talks with enemies [rather than shutting them out and being stubborn] might actually work in some cases.

Senator Hillary Clinton's foreign policy experience [which includes visiting foreign nations under her husband's administration and dodging sniper fire] and her standpoint follows President George W. Bush's view of not negotiating with enemies of the United States.

This stubbornness creates a sense of U.S. arrogant and unwielding foreign policies which in the past two decades have made the nations of the world to view Americans as ignorant and arrogant. Also anti-United States sentiments have soared in nations that already hated us.

Representative Ron Paul [R]'s presidential bid rode on the traditional Constitution platform where isolationism should drive foreign policy, not nation building and world policing. He might be one of the few Congress member still seated that isn't corrupted and persuaded by the neo-conservative [Bush] agenda.

Foreign policy experience indeed.
