For good reason, much attention is focused on foreign policy differences between the two nominees, which in many areas are both obvious and considerable. Still, it is possible to discern some similarities between them, in part because some of their disagreements are not as pronounced as they seem, and in part because the constraints that the next president of the United States will face are certain to limit what either man could do in office.
许多注意力都被集中到了两位总统候选人外交政策的不同上面，而这在许多方面是既明显又值得注意的，是有充分理由的。然而，仍然能够在他们之间发现一些相似点，部分是因为他们的差别并不像他们宣称的那样，部分是因为美国下任总统面临的限制因素，肯定会限制不管谁当选后所能做的事情。
