Romney surprises Obama by broadly agreeing with Obama's approach then turns the discussion back to domestic economic policy and global trade. Romney explains how he can cut the federal budget without touching defense. Obama says, "the math simply doesn't work" then defends his approach suggesting that Romney is out of touch with current military strategy and needs. They argue about the Iranian nuclear program, whether Obama conducted an "apology tour", the end of war in Afghanistan, and remaining threats in the region.

Obama recounts where his administration has successfully challenged China then accuses Romney of exporting jobs to China starting an exchange about the American auto industry and the bailout. Held at Lynn University in Boca Raton, FL. Sponsored by The Commission on Presidential Debates.
