The questions are expected to range from the war in Afghanistan, tensions between between Iran and Israel, the rise of China and what happened in Benghazi.
Analysts say President Obama and Mitt Romney share some views key foreign policy issues, like the 2014 withdrawal of American troops from Afghanistan.
