I'll vote for Mitt Romny. So that America will become a powerful empire and a strong force for good in the world again.


Are you being facetious?

No, not at all. I'm a conservative and I love America.

I still can't tell if you're being facetious.  You don't think right now we're already a powerful global empire?

No, Im not facetious.

Yes, America absolutely is powerful! But Obama is too weak in his foreign policies. He's a bad negotiator, giving away American interests for free without getting something in return, not even much respect. America needs to be tougher against rogue states, tougher against Russia and China and against corrupt institutions such as the UN. And America needs to take back the global initiative, to become pro-active again in international conflicts.

We spend more money in our Defense budget now than at any time under GWB. You want us to spend even more?  We have enough weapons to blow up the world like 30 times over, more than all other nations combined.  I'm no fan of Obama, believe me, but I really don't see how Romney and Obama's foreign policy is any different in the ways that matter.  They both support intervention in the internal affairs of other nations, they both support foreign aid, they both support staying in Afghanistan indefinitely, taking orders from the military instead of actually being the Commander in Chief and making a real decision.
