I think the next president needs to lead on cultural issues and experience, particularly on foreign policy.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The next president needs to know foreign policy and not learn it on the job.
The U.S. needs to do more than change presidents. It needs to change its political culture.
Trump has the opportunity to be the president who, like Harry Truman, redirected U.S. foreign policy for a generation.
Foreign policy exactly suits Obama's strong points as a leader, which turn out not to be giving the masses a clear sense of direction and hope, but instead exercising good judgment on a case-by-case basis while thinking many steps ahead of the present moment.
Foreign policy is important.
If America wants to retain its position as a global power, its president must listen to the people and show strong leadership at this turning point in human history.
So I think that our foreign policy, the president's strong and principled leadership when it comes to the war against terror and foreign policy is going to be an asset.
I think the real needs in the country are for cultural renewal.
No foreign policy - no matter how ingenious - has any chance of success if it is born in the minds of a few and carried in the hearts of none.
The lesson of the last year is this: foreign policy can't be managed through the politics of personality, and our President would do well to take note of an observation John F. Kennedy made once he was in office - that all of the world's problems aren't his predecessor's fault.
