| Campaign politics shadowing every word, President Barack Obama on Tuesday will challenge the world to confront the root causes of rage exploding across the Muslim world, calling it a defining choice "between the forces that would drive us apart and the hopes we hold in common."
Mr Obama will step before the United Nations General Assembly and declare that the United States will not shrink from its role in troubled, transitioning nations despite the killing of four Americans in Libya, including U.S. ambassador Chris Stevens, and more than 50 people total in violence linked at least in part to an anti-Muslim film.
Mr Obama will also to seek to show U.S. resolve in preventing Iran from developing a nuclear weapon, a menacing issue that has undermined White House relations with Israel's leadership
In his final international address before the November election, Mr Obama will stand up for democratic values on a stage afforded to Presidents, not Presidential challengers. He will use it to try to boost his political standing without ever mentioning Republican opponent Mitt Romney.
Were there any doubt that the U.S. Presidential campaign hung heavy over Mr Obama's speech, Mr Romney shredded it by assailing Mr Obama's foreign affairs leadership on the eve of the President's speech. Now comes Mr Obama's chance to assert his world vision on his terms.
