As we've discussed here and others have chronicled well, somewhere between the media covering this presidential campaign and the candidates themselves, we've lost a lot of important coverage of global issues.

Foreign Policy In Focus this week features a piece by Howard Salter of Citizens for Global Solutions. It pulls together public statements, questionnaire responses, and excerpts from the Foreign Affairs essays from all the current candidates and assembles a thorough run-down of the feelings of Senators Clinton, McCain and Obama on key global issues. These include the genocide in Darfur, torture, the UN and the International Criminal Court, and nuclear proliferation.

While I would have liked to have seen some coverage of global climate change, the piece is solid. And while many of the folks inside the policy universe may feel they know what they need to about these candidates, many Americans who don't live these issues daily would benefit enormously from seeing these responses collected in one place.
