My Comment: I disagree with Mitt Romney's comments on Russia being America's number one geopolitical foe. There are differences .... but to raise it to the level of being a geo-political foe .... not even close. This type of thinking may have been popular (and right) during the Cold War .... it is definitely not applicable in today's world.

The real geo-political foe to America in the 21rst century will be coming from China .... and even then .... I do have some doubts.
