Require future ambassador appointees to foreign nations to have visited and be familiar with the country appointed to

Created by K.J. on February 20, 2014

It is appalling that President Obama's recent appointees to be ambassador, the representative of our great nation to our allied nations of Argentina, Norway, Iceland and Hungary have little to no knowledge of the country appointed to and none of them have even traveled to these nations. In Norway this is making us a laughing stock as they replay the soundbite of George Tsunis admitting never traveling to Norway, incorrectly discounting Norway's Progressive Party as a "fringe" when the Progressive Party is part of Norway's ruling coalition, and referred to Norway's non existant President He donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to Obamas reelection along with Robert Barber, $1.6m appointed to Iceland, Colleen Bell $800k appointed to Hungary, and Noah Mamet $500k appointed to Argentina
