    Obama has a more sensible approach to dealing with Iran. McCain keeps repeating the same old belligerent stance that has gotten us into difficulty in the past with other countries.

    Obama correctly points out that the Bush administration is responsible for Iran's rise in influence in the Middle East because the invasion of Iraq removed their enemy Saddam and strengthened the Shiites in Iraq. McCain of course will never admit that and defends Bush's policies.

    McCain. He will make sure we finish the job we started and that is supporting the troops because I guarantee you the majority of the troops want the same thing. No soldier wants to be forced to leave a job unfinished.

    I think they are both the same. Obama outlined an Iran policy at APIAC that is identical to Bush's. Of course, he has probably changed it a couple of times since then.

    Therealmadea - above - doesn't know the difference between Iraq and Iran.

    We are experiencing the aftermath of an Obama type foreign policy currently. We are reaping the effects of Carter's disastrous policies concerning IRAN. Do we really need to relive them?

    I think someone with the middle name of Hussein may actually have a chance to have a meaningful conversation with the nutcases who rule Iran.

    Obama by far. He's for talks and diplomacy. All McCain is for is saber rattling and insults.

    I believe Obama does - he wants the troops removed, sooner rather than later. He will work with the powers that be to ensure that this happens.

    McCain has stated that he believes the troops will be there until at least 2013 - and doesn't act like he cares much about the soldiers.
