well count me as one on the thread who just skips over the FP policy posts....'same-o same-o' it never ends we have way too much on our plate here at home to worry about being the world's policeman oh and BTW, you posted something several days ago (i was traveling and couldn't respond) about romney being 'stupid' when it comes to china... i have to disagree.... politically getting 'tough on china' is a big winner....jobs (or lack thereof) rates as probably the highest priority for american voters and for better or worse the perception is that the US is being unfairly penalized by china when it comes to exporting our jobs to asia....romney would be an idiot as a wall streeter to even remotely appear to be 'soft on china' same thing with trump... he knows this issue works with voters

Domestic and foreign policy are two sides of the same coin. While most people are dreadfully uniformed politically, the more people that are informed, then the more that information has an opportunity to be disseminated. Your efforts here Lindy may not be earth shaking, but I believe they matter more than you may think. :) * * *
