There is a part of me that wants to agree with you 100%, but there is one thing that bothers me. Since the early 1900's we have been asked to be the policeman of the world. Yes, I said asked. Every time we have refused, there have been dire consequences and people have suffered. If we don't step in when the world goes sideways, then who will? It is something like parenting. My brother and I had a healthy fear of our father because we knew there would be punishment for inappropriate behavior. Too many children look upon their parents as friends and in turn ignore boundaries that keep them safe. I sure hope that, as a world leader, President Obama is building more friendships, but is also reminding them (as Teddy Roosevelt would say) that we carry a big stick.
