I still wonder why Israel is mentioned so much in debates, campaigns, etc. I get we're allies, but I'm pretty sure we're in the US of A, not Israel.
Apparently there are only three countries, I learned tonight. In order of importance: Israel, USA, and Iran@murisan said:

Mitt Romney mentioned the European Union once, so they might be kind of important, maybe?

Well... they did mention China...sorta. I mean Romney said he does want to protect us from knock off iPods and Naruto Headbands.
I support this thread more than the other Debate threads even though it spells the President's name wrong.

romney is obviously more of a DBZ man
The Lizard Man on CNN says President Obama won. I'm not quite sure I agree with Lord Voldemort on this one.
Both of them barely disagreed at all when it came to real foreign policy; they simply disagreed on word preference. But they made it sound like there was a policy chasm between success or utter destruction for the country.

I think the OP was referring to Baraka Obama.
I think he meant Brock Obama.

I think Romney's hair was the big loser. Did anyone else notice that one strand out of place?
I thought I was the only one lol

Israel is important to a lot of Jewish voters, so they have no reason not to mention it a lot, especially Obama, since Jewish people tend to vote Democrat.

Romney mentioned Latin America a few times at one point, but the way he talked about it made it sound like he thought there is a country called "Latin America."

A Foreign Policy debate isn't really that important this election season. So...it didn't change my mind.
I wouldn't say that foreign policy isn't important, especially with tensions between Israel and Iran on the rise, but you're right that it's less important than some domestic issues.
Obama "won" I think. Romney still comes off as a bit of a war monger, and I can't help but think that America would hit another recession if he became president.
As a Canadian, I was shocked, SHOCKED, to hear exactly zero mentions to Canada, the US's largest trading partner. Aside from a passing mention of 'the pipeline' from Romney, Canada was strangely absent from the debate. Canada got brought up three times in both other debates, too.
Also: no mention of climate change? I think losing Florida and Louisiana to the ocean would kill more people than if Iran actually launched a nuke at the US. Which they wouldn't because they'd launch it at Israel Which they can't because they don't have a nuke.
And I was laughing pretty hard at Romney first quoting a Joint Chief's assertion that financial security was the gravest threat America faces, then saying its a nuclear Iran. And him parroting Obama's policy back at America, but "stronger," whatever that means.
Finally, my jaw dropped at "Killing people wont solve problems" turning into "Kill those dictators" within the same segment.
The President, easily. All Romney did was agree with the current policy while twisting himself in knots trying to criticize it. It was also pretty hilarious seeing him change his position, not just from what he said a couple months or a year ago, but what he said a few minutes earlier.

Haven't watched the debate but I can imagine how much Israel talk there was. And let me just say this right now. Real talk: fuck Israel. Both Obama and Romney need to get over their massive Israeli boners.
then there needs to be less jewish voters in swing states BOYO
(I agree though fuck israel)

Romney has a knack for that. He also claimed he didn't want to be an adversary of China then just 2 minutes later saying he's gonna label China a currency manipulator.

Yea wtf, he is saying how much we need to work with China and be best buds, then goes on literally 5 seconds later how we have to call them out for not playing fair and cheating the system. This guy is a walking contradiction. But I think we can all agree CHINA DON'T CARE.
