Certainly, this will be dismissed by some of John McCain's opponents as a stunt. But ensuring that he is as familiar and acclimated with foreign policy and national security issues as possible in the course of his campaign is a mark in favor of John McCain. Yes, it helps him stay in the news but it should; after having spent so much time absorbed in watching the mudslinging contest between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, it is nice to be reminded that Presidential candidates can actually take the time to pay attention to the issues and ensure that if elected, they will have all of the knowledge and information available to be able to augment and enhance the national security and foreign policy interests of the United States.
