1. Foreign policy
2. Both represent their topic by explaining what's happening
3. Both talks about how Obama feels about how the world should operate and how he think he should reduce the size of the armed forces
4. I think the written editorial proves the point more than the cartoon editorial.
5. The cartoon is more entertaining and the written gives more information.
