It is no surprise that America has become such an important player in the development in the world.
The US is the leader in several organizations particularly the UN.
Throughout the decades the world has relied on the US to maintain one crucial thing- PEACE.
The Last debate between Governor Mitt Romney and incumbent US President Barrack Obama focuses on foreign issues. The conflict in the Middle East was greatly discussed. They see how important foreign affairs are in maintaining US as a global superpower.
They have also accused China as a "currency manipulator" according to Gov. Romney.China is a very prosperous nation, a sleeping dragon slowly awakening.
However China as progressive as it may seem, has over the last few months taken aggressive action against the nations of South-east Asia particularly the small island nation, the Philippines. The US government should take action against China in trying to at least stop its very harsh steps towards being a global superpower.
Last month the US has supplied the Philippines with a new radar system to ward off against missile threats, also they have donated several boats to keep the PH border from being infiltrated by Chinese fishing vessels.
Under the guise of Pres. Obama and Sec. Clinton, the Philippines has maintained its sovereignty from the hands of the Chinese who are attempting to take a small group of islands called the Spratlys.
What makes President Obama a great President is his abstinence from the use of weapons. Because of him US military presence in the middle-east has reduced significantly allowing the Arab nations to lead themselves. He uses diplomatic means to maintain peace and order in the world.
Although he is a great example of a president who prioritizes world affairs, he seems to have lost a sense of alertness when it comes to his nation the US. Unemployment in the US is in a record high. Gov. Romney on the other hand promises job reforms, offering the population stable jobs and high "take home pay."
The world also relies on the US to make jobs. The companies they make like Shell, 7-eleven, Best-Buy and many more are franchises that developing nations use to make jobs. So if these companies fail expect also the entire world to come falling down in another recession.
Several big companies have come to a stop. The recession has left its mark very big. America has not found the strength to get out of the hole. This has made a big effect in the job market. Thousands of Americans, and to some extent immigrants who work in the US, have lost their jobs.
The conflicts in the middle east has also had a great effect in the prices of oil. With the majority of the Arab nations now in chaos, fuel supply is being cut down. Thus causing a big rise in oil prices. The US is a big exporter of oil. What about the nations who rely on the US for oil? Low supply equals high price. We (the World) need a US president who can make a stable supply of Oil possible with reasonable prices.
The US Elections is an event everyone should watch out for. The person who will win will have a huge share in the path not the US will take but the WORLD. We need three things from these candidates:
1. Assurance of Peace
2. Assurance of Jobs
3. Assurance of reasonable prices of Oil.
