Obama is committed to gutting the military and stopping the repair and upgrading of equipment. He even plans to stop the successful missile defense program. He needs to do this to get funds for all his other initiatives such as feeding Africa.
I think he'll do whatever is right. His views have changed a bit recently, but it's probably because he knows more about the situation now. It would all have been easier if we hadn't gone there in the first place, huh?
The news media has just released Obama will send an additional 10,000 solders to afganistand. Obama is currently on tour in Europe to assess the situation with his own eyes.
The columnists I've been reading say that during the primaries you play to your "core" supporters. Then when they make you their candidate you move toward the centre to get the independents and wishy washy voters from the other party. And that's what Obama's doing with his sudden shifts of policy.
What he'll do in office, however, is anyone's guess. Hard to see how cut and run will be a good policy.
