Powell supported the limpwristed incumbent. When he did that,he gave up his right to call himself a Republican.

Once again you are pointing out 2 random politicians, not the POINT MAN for foreign policy for the last Republican president. That would be like me saying Hillary Clinton's foreign policy is irrelevant to all Democrats. Lieberman and Zell were just 2 senators who did their own thing.

Agreed, loved watching him take Sean Hannity to the woodshed last night as well!

Romney has no foreign policy at all. He has no policy on anything actually. Have you ever seen a guy that looks more like a puppet than mitt??? I sure have not. The guy looks very very uncomfortable in his own skin. Could that be because of his puppetness. He has strings pulling him this way and that to the point where the guy can hardly even move.

I like the way Obama moves. He just flows along like a well trained athlete. He looks and sounds very comfortable in his own skin.

Body language means a lot to me and I can tell you without a doubt that Mitt is a nowhere man living in his nowhere land making all his nowhere plans for nobody.

Yes, and I would recommend all Americans live in a foreign nation for a year or two outside of the sureal cocoon of the US military or the US State Dept. I did my time in Nigeria , Honduras and Bolivia so my understanding of what its like out there is more than just the National Geographic or a Bob Hope "On the Road" movie. To Obama and me these places are real and nothing would be better for white America than to live in a nation where you might go for days and see no other white face apart from your immediate family.
You need to learn there is nothing special about America and the sooner we learn this the better it will be for the human race.

I agree with you in principle, but I disagree wholeheartedly with the bolded. I've talked to hundreds, if not thousands, of people worldwide who would give anything to come to America. Their lives are not lived in vacuum or an abstract....there's something to this desire to escape the society in which they live.

There are PLENTY of things that make America special. What I find highly ironic is that you suggest that "white" American's should seek to live somewhere else in order to gain perspective while simultaneously positing that there's "nothing special" about the America that people from all over the world seek to migrate.
