Allan, I agree. And honestly, that’s a concern of mine too. What voter A sees about candidate X may be wishful thinking.

Keep in mind, the process is comparative. Voter A doesn’t have to have complete information about candidate X, just enough to compare with candidate Y. So at this point, candidate X’s approach to energy and foreign policy are greatly preferable for Voter A’s tastes.

But you are exactly correct. Only time will tell. For all of our part, I hope he’s a reasonable success.

Meantime, are Obama’s foreign policy positions more conservative than Bush/McCain? Looking for substantive debate. We’ve had a few good posts already.

BTW, is anybody going to take a stab at rebutting the main point of the Newsweek article?

Obama’s foreign policy positions are more realist, pragmatic and conservative than the Bush/McCain positions, which are idealogical and interventionist.

Some of the responses actually discussed foreign policy…

Aecetia, what’s your take on reducing our dependence on foreign oil? Is it achievable? Combination of conservation, domestic drilling, clean coal and development of renewables such as wind, solar, biofuels, micro-generation, etc.? The electrical grid underpinning it all? Ten years out? 20 years out?

Where does the money come from? Given the state of things?

Do you view this energy issue as connected to foreign policy? Does it give us a better strategic position vis-a-vis the middle east (and others)?
