Who was this man? Peep the stripe to find out!

This was Senator McGovern. He is probably most known as the President that America probably never had. Running for office against Nixon during the notorious Watergate incident. He suffered the biggest Election defeat in American history as he only claimed 37.5 percent of the American vote. McGovern was a university professor turned politician who made history as (at the time) the first politician from South Dakota to be elected to the House of Representatives in 22 years and to Senate in 26 years. A liberal who held Christian values. He is also well known for establishing and successfully operating the Kennedy Food Program; an operation that sent surplus food overseas and stated by McGovern himself to be one of his proudest achievements. McGovern contributed many other benefits to America and the world. He died this morning. He was 90 years old, and will surely be missed. Rest in Peace

America's Election... Foreign Effects.

And so it's wrapping up... I must say though the excitement is not as hot as it was back in 08, and the Election is less than 20 days away. We know what America wants, but what are the sentiments about the election overseas? I'll tell you this! Not much has changed. Mitt Romney has repeatedly gone overseas and been booed, because of his verbal gaffes (like calling Russia our enemy...remember that?) However, he's also gaining the support of some Arabs who felt Obama had not done enough for their autonomy. It's a mixed bag, needing more explanation which I'm sure we'll get Monday night. Oh yes! Monday night's debate is the final Presidential debate from Camp David and Foreign Affairs being Obama's strong suit, I have a feeling it will be even more entertaining than the debate last thursday. I'll be tweeting live from @zeeaffairs so follow and stay up to date.
