It amazes me how many experts there are on this subject and how they think one should be able to squeeze so much into a 90 minute time frame, One wonders where you (they)received all your (their) experience and knowledge to be able to provide an objective view of this subject. AS I recall of all the Presidents this country has had, I cannot remember any two having the same policy. In a world of ever changing events we need people who can think and react on their feet, and yes this means on the job training. Think about it.

if the next president and VP could manage to point to those countries on the world map that they think the USA should next attack.

A bit of historical context wouldn't go amiss either.

I'm not sure if yours is a complaint about any particular candidate, but as far as thinking on your feet goes, I'd have to say that not being able to name a single newspaper or magazine you've read recently, as Palin failed to do in response to Katie Couric's question tells me she can't think on her feet.
