Rosner's Domain: Doing well on "relations with countries"

Note that relations with other countries is the least measurable item on the poll, and by far the least important question asked. Health Care Reform and the deficit numbers are in the low 30's. Managing the economy barely over 40%, management of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan less than 40%. For a President in his first year in office, these are disasterous numbers. All that's left is to hope that other countries like the US. Nixon went to China when the impeachment process was under way. Obama has travelled abroad more than any President in his first year. Sooner or later, you have to come home and face the music.

Also, "other countries" are very far away when you're looking at the world from Iowa.
