(CNN) — Barack Obama has released his second ad with a national security focus in as many days Wednesday, amid a week of events designed to highlight the presumptive Democratic nominee’s credentials on that front.
In the new 30-second spot, “Changing World” – which, like “America’s Leadership” Tuesday, does not mention Iraq and Afghanistan - Obama again highlights his work on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to end the smuggling of loose nuclear weapons. The ad debuted on the same day he held a summit on the issue in Indiana, featuring prospective VPs Senator Evan Bayh and former Senator Sam Nunn as panelists.
“Forty years ago it was missile silos and the Cold War,” says the announcer, over images of missiles and other security threats. “Today, it’s cyber attacks…loose nukes…oil money funding terrorism.
“Barack Obama understands our changing world. On the Foreign Relations Committee, he co-sponsored a law to lock down loose nuclear weapons. As president, he’ll rebuild our alliances to take out terrorist networks, and fast-track alternatives so we stop spending billions on oil from hostile nations,” continues the announcer. “New leadership for a changing world.”
The ad will run on national cable starting Thursday.

Good you go Obama!
This man's judgement is brilliant and he is proactive. He has foreseen issues way before the average person even knows about them. He is no dummy. Unlike mcwar who thought that Iraq was safe.
The Mc Pol Pot Regime has a new plan for Iran
McWar now wants to commit genocide on all Iranians and Persians. His new plan includes nicotine gas chambers and giant potash plants for there burned up bodies. This man does not care about human life at all. Just his family fortune and his wealthy lobbyist friends.
THIS IS FORWARD LOOKING AND BRILLIANT. THIS MAN IS TRULY PRESIDENTIAL MATERIAL.
OBAMA.........08
“New leadership for a changing world.”
YES WE CAN
As military Officer on Active Duty. His Leadership is needed today more than ever. A Strong, wise and disciplined leader with great forsight for an AMERICA STRONG! Obama is what the military has been waiting for since 2004!
LEADERSHIP FOR A NEW WORLD!
OBAMA 2008; 2012
That is why you have my vote President Obama!!
Nailed it....Obama 08
Do Americans know that there are several countries in the world that has loose biological weapons that terrorists can buy to harm America? Obama has plans to secure these weapons and some Americans are stupid enough to afford a myopic view of why McCain is better in War strategy than Obama. I pray we don't get the wake up call we so richly deserve.
Way to go Obama.....now watch the Repugnants try to say something negative....they are all so negative and pessimistic.....and all want to continue fighting and bombing, and fighting.....and they want us to believe that they are not bitter, but Michelle Obama is angry!! Puhleeze!
WOO HOOO! Go get 'em Barack!
Obama never held a meeting as chairman of that committee!
Are Americans really stupid enough to buy into this media BS?
I'm not talking about Democrats. We all know what they are.
Anybody out there recall John McCain calling Senator Obama “reckless and naïve” ?
And yet we now repeatedly see nations around the world, as well as the Bush administration, [and John McCain himself] following the FORIEGN POLICYleadership of Obama
Senator Obama has called for more brigades in Afghanistan for almost a year, now McCain is COPYING Obama on this point.
Senator Obama said we must engage in dialog with our enemies and be willing to solve problems diplomatically as well as militarily. Since that time
– Isreal has opened discussions with Syria
– The Bush Administration has agreed to meet with Iran on nuclear
– The Iraqi Prime Minister has called for a timetable for US troops to be removed from Iraq
Not to mention Obama being right about the US fighting the Iraq war to begin with.
Finally, McCain is quick to throw out the name of Petraus, but I’ve never heard him speak of the commanding general in Afghanistan. Strikes me as someone who knows the “buzzwords” but not the details of how the rubber meets the road.
His handlers will feed him the name and we will start to hear it in a few days from now. Of this, I’m sure
Great!!! I'll be tuning in to see it!!!!
GOBAMA!!!!
I'm glad he's finally starting to highlight the things that he has done and the judgement he has had. Being a good commander-in-chief and fighting the war on terror has many different obstacles. Cyber terrorism is a significant issue. Many people don't know it because it's not as widely published but banks, companies and government entities are always being targeted and loosing millions of dollars. How can we have a president not computer savy when he will be the one to create government organizations to combat this problem?
Obama does not have what it takes to become a President! He lacks everything to get the job done. The only way that he is going to win in November is to have Hillary Clinton on the ticket with him.
If Obama does by chance get elected, our country will go down in history, and I mean for the terrible way. He will cause more damage than our present President Bush. Do we really want that?
GOD helps us all!
Ok So Now Obama after doing nothing all these years, he's an
authority.
Gimme a break.
Obama is to national security what Hillary Clinton is to feminity.
Que the fake republican Puma pact and the other trailor park trash idiots...
I dont know why (I think I have many reasons) but Obama makes me soooo mad. just thinking of him creates anger.... he is full of himself and has nothing than empty rhetorik.
Well, McCain is a lil bit better
Rob
People "smuggling loose nuclear weapons" don't care about law to begin with. What a meaningless piece of legislation that is. How about we make it illegal to hijack a plane? Oh, it is. And it doesn't prevent it?
All of a sudden Obama is an authority..
Gimme a break.
Go Obama go you are one of a kind you make me pround by the sencond.
Doubt there will be enough american people trust his faith, his judgement, his leadership, and his patritism...
