John Kerry

that is why the Senator's work in in position is largely ignored imo.

Foreign Policy is just not a glamorous issue as compared to the economy and/or health care, mainly because those are survival issues. Almost asking, 'what does the president of Russia/India or conflicts in the Middle East have to do with me, if I can't get a job or health insurance?'

The foreign policy that most are familiar with are the tragic earthquakes of Haiti and Japan, the two wars of Iraq and Afghanistan; OBL, Hussein, and Ghadaffi, and that is pretty much it. This doesn't seem right, but when the Egypt revolution happened last year, the consensus was (listening to black talk radio) 'why does the O administration need to get involved when we have enough problems here at home. Let them work their issues out.'

Darfur, Sudan and work in Haiti should be getting more attention. Lots of work (still needs to be) done there.
