1) Most of the "world" isn't going to be on America's side anyway. Clinton portrayed that image, but when it came down to accomplishing anything of importance, such as the Kosovo war, Clinton ran into the same anti-American vitrol that now dogs Bush. Of course, Clinton was a lot more sensitive to such criticism, and that almost cost us the victory in Kosovo.

The vitriol came from tom delay and the republicans...Did you know that the US did not suffer a single combat death in Kosovo? Did you know that the single most worryisome opponent in Kosovo was Russia, who considers Serbs as blood brothers. That's right Tench...Clinton took on Russia in Kosovo...and stopped Milosevich (now on trial at the Hague, on international law grounds) from further ethnic murdering. He did not swagger, he did not spread demagoguery and slogans. And still the strongest opposition came domestically from right wing politicians. The Europeans (save for Russia) were delighted.
