Choosing to generally abide by international and U.S. law would be a huge plus.

honestly this is a huge part of what foreign policy reform would look like for me; you could do a lot worse than starting with the premise that the united states actually respect other states, the international organizations and treaties we're a part of (or should be a party to and aren't), and international law rather than constantly acting like a lovely bully trying to be big dick on the playground even when (wrt things like climate change and the prospect of nuclear war) the stakes are incredibly dire

americans have a tendency to boil foreign policy down to a reductive question of selfish, willfully negligent isolationism VS selfish, violent interventionism, as if the notion of international cooperation for the mutual good of all isn't even on the table, and it'd be nice to have a president (who would almost definitely need to be not a boomer bc of poo poo like the shadow of the cold war) who considers that possibility
