I am against a substained military presence in ANY country. I believe in non-interventionism. I do not think we need to be spending US taxpayers money on maintaining a presence by having 700 bases in over 130 countries.
I was trying to point out that even with Obama the mindset of America interventionism will continue. It does not matter that it is Obama or McCain things are not going to change very much in respect to foreign policy. I do think that Obama "might" be willing to talk more.
