However, there are those who argue that the US foreign policy has always between the same, that is, ensuring that the US and its interests are given top priority everywhere on the globe. It doesn't matter which government is in power, Democratic or Republican, the policy is the same.

One, Kalist Tesha, a resident of Dar es Salaam, thinks that even though the US foreign policy is the same, still if Barack Obama is elected, his approach, when it comes to US foreign policy, will take a more diplomatic stance compared to MacCain.

Fatuma Omar, a school teacher in Dar es Salaam, says she doesn't see much changes with the coming into office of a new president in America. She says, the US is still at war in many parts of the world, and it is these wars that have contributed to making our world a less secure place to live.

Although she prays that Obama wins the election, but she doesn't think there will be much changes. Africa is waiting to see the outcome of the November 4th US presidential elections, infact everyone around the world is waiting to see who will win before they can express further their expectations of the the new leader.
