After watching the presidential debate I feel that I agree with Obama on the majority of the issues and have a high respect for the positions hhe takes on the nations current issues. The issue in the debate that jumped out at me the most however was foreign policy. Obama said he would love the opportunity to sit down with leaders all over the world such as russia, north korea, and Cuba to see if they could compromise and communicate. Obama said that the idea of America completely ignoring countries they don't like as a form of punishment just isn't as effective as communication. John McCain on the other hand absoultely disagreed, he said that to sit down with those leaders would be "dangerous" and it would legitamize their behavior. In my opinion I think that John McCain could not be more wrong, theres nothing "dangerous" about talking. Communication and compromising is the key to global peace which I think would be an Ideal world to live in.
