Historically, international affairs have not counted for very much in American presidential elections. The economy has proven to be the most important factor to voters. But September 11th, Iraq and homeland security appeared to have played decisive roles in recent Congressional elections. Will a similar batch of global questions be central to the 2004 race? If not, should they be? And which ones would be the most important in assessing a candidate's viability? These and related matters will be the subject of our panel discussion.

Thursday, February 6, 2003, 6:00-7:30 p.m. Swayduck Auditorium, First
Floor, 65 Fifth Avenue (between East 13-14th). Admission is free
