Here's a list of 10 of Obama's campaign promises that concern the world.

role in negotiating a binding global treaty to replace the expiring Kyoto
Protocol

permanent bases in the country

- Establish a clear goal of eliminating all nuclear weapons across the globe

- Close the Guantanamo Bay detention center

- Double US aid to cut extreme poverty in half by 2015 and accelerate the
fight against HIV/AIDS, tuberculoses and Malaria

- Open diplomatic talks with countries like Iran and Syria, to pursue
peaceful resolution of tensions

- De-politicize military intelligence to avoid ever repeating the kind of
manipulation that led the US into Iraq

- Launch a major diplomatic effort to stop the killings in Darfur

- Only negotiate new trade agreements that contain labor and environmental
protections

million plug-in electric cars on the road by 2015
