Exactly what I was thinking, and very well said (if I do say so myself). On what basis has Senator Obama been debating policy all these months when he clearly doesn't have it all defined in his own head yet. This must be about more than just taking a trip so he can check it off the list and not be called out on his lack of travel. I would hope a President would have a mature foreign policy view before going for the office. Too much to hope for I guess.
Could be brilliant. If he goes to Europe and talks tough on Iran, on Russia and a few other things, he could do himself a lot of good and also show that the US will lead on these issues no matter who is president.

[illustrates thickness with fingers] The 11th Edition will be that [narrows fingers] thick. Winston Smith: So, The Revolution will be complete when the language is perfect? Syme: The secret is to move from translation, to direct thought, to automatic response. No need for self-discipline. Language coming from here [the larynx], not from here
