America's Presidential Campaign through Foreign Eyes
With the President architect of US foreign policy, how does "European-style socialism" go down in France and Germany? How do GOP hopefuls sound in China, Israel and Iran?
By Warren Olney • • 50m ListenThe national campaign is focused on American voters, but the President is the commander-in-chief and the architect of foreign policy. How does the idea of "European-style socialism" go down in France and Germany? How do Romney, Gingrich and other Republican hopefuls sound in China, Israel, Iran and other parts of the world? Also, diplomatic pressure mounts on Syrian President Bashar al-Assad at the UN, and Burmese pythons in the Florida Everglades.
