A Mideast Perspective

[spence]

The World is going to change a lot in the next several decades, there's no doubt about that. I certainly do see an drop in the wealth (and excess) of the US, but this might not be all of a bad thing as long as we can keep global wars, famine etc... at bay.

I believe some radical change is going to be needed in our system to control this transition. But to date, I've not heard anything from Barak that gives me confidence he understands or has a strategy to help guide us. McCain may not be much better...

Just as long as we can fish.

And yes, I don't see anyone running that can help guide us. And Bush just wants to go back to the ranch.
