I am not comfortable with this.
The topics for the third and final presidential debate, which will focus exclusively on foreign policy, were announced in Friday.
Politico's Mike Allen was the first to post the topics, which were selected by the moderator, CBS anchor Bob Schieffer. The debate will take place on Oct. 22nd at Lynn University in Boca Raton, Florida.
The topics are:
America's role in the world Our longest war -- Afghanistan and Pakistan Red Lines -- Israel and Iran The Changing Middle East and the New Face of Terrorism (two segments) The Rise of China and Tomorrow's World.
