Election 2012: Foreign Policy

Election 2012: Foreign Policy by MSW.  MGB: Romney is simply an idiot on foreign policy.  Sadly, he has surrounded himself with cold warriors who want to preserve the defense industry to the greatest extent possible, which is another reason there is so much focus on Iran (as I don't believe it is about revenging the honor of Jimmy Carter in response to the hostage crisis).  As for Latin American, the answer is drug legalization on both sides of the border, which would rob the cartels of their power and the need for violence.  Setting up reasonable boundaries for Afghanistan is a job for Wesley Clark, who has street cred for his work in Bosnia with Muslims.  We simply need to leave.  Overall, we need to gut the military budget and increase space exploration spending so that doing this does not destroy the economy.  There is no need to project American power so far.  Other nation's have naval forces - they do not need us to policy the seas.
