A President's Loyalties
One of the reason's (if not THE reason) a POTUS must be a natural born citizen is to assure his/her allegiences to the USA. Now, this is not a "birther" thread, so avoid that please. President Obama won the Nobel Peace prize for NOTHING. He knows it, we know it, and most of the world knows it. And, we all know (or strongly suspect) it was done to influence his future decisions. In light of this, his current War Policy makes sense. His stubborn stance on Climate Change in the midst of ClimateGate makes sense.
Yes, we now have a President that owes allegience to other countries. He is including them in his decision making process.
Can you imagine him going to Oslow to recieve his prize on the heels of just announcing a kick ass, take no prisoners, no exit date, were going to end this war once and for all policy? Can you imagine him giving a speech saying that in light of the ongoing investigation (ClimateGate), he will not be going to Copenhagan to sign away our future by signing treaties that will bankrupt this country?
No, you cannot.
