US absent on most global issues

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton spoke today on the Obama administration's vision of American global leadership in the 21st century. She said that the US has the reach, resources and resolve to mobilize the in order solve global problems. Citing international sanctions on Iran and the US's reset with Russia she argues that the US model of global leadership is producing results. But, what does the rest of the world think? Journalist Matthew Lee of InnerCityPress.com in New York said the speech is pretty striking, because the US performance and success rate is much less than is being promised.

@MasonicEyes i meant the reason poorer countries have higher birth rates is down to a lack of education on birth control (religion etc...) & the reason many are poor is down to their corrupt governments & the west taking advantage of cheap labour etc... i agree on your comment about mainstream beliefs.

@djdnauk1977 Parenting is not the result of a Corrupt government, I used to think that way, until I realized that alot of problems stem from the people themselves and the corruption stems from people taking advantage of society's ignorance, I can't blame the corrupt people because people are so stupid they cannot even think outside of mainstream beliefs, and that is a compliment because most people don't even acquire enough knowledge to know what is mainstream and what is not.

[djdnauk1977]

@MasonicEyes thats down to a lack of education & money, which is more the fault of their corrupt/greedy leaders & those in the west that abuse them economically... (multi-national corporations etc...)

@youngbuck189 Not really, people in the Congo should stop breeding, if you cannot support children in any country you live in, you should not reproduce, its the same in America except children do not starve they are deprived educationally and emotionally by intellectually inept parents who should of spared their genetics for the benefit of humanity.

@GrandArchitect3D No one person is truly free. Yes there's a pretty picture painted in front of us that looks like freedom. But it ain't.
