Obama Encourages Global Communication

Senator Obama is back on the campaign trail and talking U.S. global policy. Below are the highlights of his speech.

1. Bring a responsible end to this war in Iraq and refocus on the critical challenges in the broader region;
2. Modernize our overstretched armed forces, building the first truly 21st century military and show wisdom in how we deploy it;
3. Marshal a global effort to secure, destroy, and stop the spread of weapons of mass destruction;
4. Rebuild and construct the alliances and partnerships necessary to meet common challenges and confront common threats; and
5. Invest in our common humanity to ensure that those who live in fear and want today can live with dignity.
