John McCain

I am not American, so I really do not know about elections. However, I would say this as a Japanese citizen; McCain will make a positive impact for Japan. There is an important reason. He advocates the stability, preservation, and enhancement of the Japan-U.S. alliance. He really agrees with "value-oriented diplomacy" that Tokyo has adopted, and welcoming our further emergence as a global power. Also, he recommends Japan needs to beef up its defenses, and Japan should make security related efforts like nationals of the other states do. I really agree with his idea. Japan is an important alliance for the U.S. His thoughts highlight the functions of Japan for U.S. benefits as a guarantee for U.S. security. He is trying to take a good stance in the Japan-U.S. alliance.
