"Foreign policy credientials"
Every time I hear this term applied to Obama or Palin, it sounds to me like an admissions policy for an all white men's club. Foreign policy is not rocket science. It can be learned like U.S. history can be learned. Truman is a classic example, and he of course was helped by a great cabinet. Either Obama or Palin would have a lot of help. I'm not sold on "lacks foreign policy credentials" as a meaningful critique of Obama or Palin.
