host: one last call, darlene. caller: i would like to say that i am very disappointed in obama. that he does not talk to these foreign leaders. he has hillary do it. is that not sad? he does not do it, hillary has to do his work. he lies about the foreign wars over there. that is what i call them, because of of fighting. he does not do anything about it. there is one other question i would like to less -- how much is it costing the taxpayers to pay for all of the trips that michelle obama takes, flying all over the country about her sugar and her obesity? when she went over to the olympics, she met with the queen wearing her $7,000 jacket and was heard to say that kate middleton could have worn something nicer. host: coming up next, we will talk to nicholas burns. former ambassador to nato, analyzing the role of foreign policy in this campaign 2012. a bit later, the c-span tour bus is going through virginia. today it will start -- stop in norfolk state to talk about the importance of virginia in camp in 2012. we will be right back. ♪ >> i watch c-span, especially when there ar
