I've said it before, and I'll repeat it here again, the media only shows what the public wants to see. Should the public desire something else, we'll all get something else.

I don't think the majority of the public is nearly educated enough about the way things go on to ask for the things you're asking for. The majority of the public does NOT think "what will this candidate do for the nation? and the world?", they think "what will this candidate do for me?". Because the majority of the public is completely self involved and has no time to think of their fellow countrymen, let alone the rest of the world.

Don't believe me? Find someone and ask them why they're voting Bush. The most likely answer is "Because I want to know that the country is safe." You really think they mean all 290 some odd million people living within these borders? I think not.

The same rule can be applied to any candidate, in my opinion.
