“There have been U.S. successes in the international arena during the past quarter century, but the overall trend for us in the global arena has been negative, despite our braggadocio. To deal with the diverse challenges America faces, American must lead. But to lead, to achieve its purposes and goals, it must strengthen all the instruments of power and apply them with great wisdom. We must use the American symphony of power to ensure authoritarianism, twice defeated in the twentieth century, does not prevail in the twenty-first.”
