Do you think the upcoming U.S. presidential election will bring a significant change to U.S. foreign policy? It could, at least in the beginning of an Obama presidency. If Obama does what he says, he could pull US troops out quickly from Iraq, which could destabilize not only Iraq but the entire region. John McCain would not do that. Obama could be more protectionists in trade than McCain, and would likely try to call a regional security conference with Iran, which McCain would be unlikely to do. (more)

US Journalists Susan Spencer and Thomas Oliphant Discusses 2008 US Presidential Elections with Czech Audiences March 20, 2008
Why are these elections called "historical"? For the first time in history, either an African American man or a woman will be the nominee of a major political party. This seems to me a transforming event, regardless of whether Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama goes on to the White House. It can´t help but affect social attitudes overall. And it sends a message of openness and diversity the Americans can be proud of, regardless of party. (more)
