[quote=Anonymous]OP here, yes PP - I take your point. Just travelling doesn't imply understanding, especially if you are a VIP (as anyone running for president would be.) But when the campaign is making a big deal about how "Obama doesn't understand the Arab spring" and how much better Romney would have handled the past 2 years in the region and the present crisis, then it provokes a question about what he knows and via what source. This has always been an important part of the world - if he hasn't been there, why hasn't he made the effort to do so, given the job he's been aiming for over the past decade or so? I don't think it's a disqualifier, but I'd like to put his policy recommendations in some context. If you've literally never even set foot in this part of the world, I'm less inclined to take you seriously when you tell me that you understand it.[/quote]
