Call me an isolationist all you want, I prefer the title "ethical realist."

  • Just out of curiosity, becuase I'm not even sure where I stand on the subject, under what circumstances *would* you want America to intervene in the working of another country?

  • I am not sure that I'd want the American military to intervene in the working of another country. I think ambassadors have a legitimate role to play. I think the political, economic, and cultural effects of trade trumps military coercion any day of the week. Missionaries also play a huge role. But government ought only act in our defense, and only when the threat is mortal.

  • As a Brit my one regret about the prospect of a Democrat victory next year is the loss of Condoleezza Rice from the administration. She understands the value of diplomacy and being from Alabama she's seen the negative side of the United States. I think this gives her a more pragmatic view of the effect her country has had on the world.

  • that guy in the background wants to be on youtube...lol. Good video. armed neutrality is what i've heard it called and it should be our position on almost all foreign matters, at least militarily.

  • WOW! I actually agree with you on this video. Maybe your not a bad guy after all.

  • What is our world role? We should revert to isolationism and rebuilding our economic position in the world. Our economy is showing some very serious long-term weaknesses, and China and other ascending economies are about to eat our lunch.

  • We need to pull out of NATO and the UN
