I strongly AGREE with your e mail. I have spent the last 47 years travelling abroad as a Navy Demolition diver, businessman, State Dept. Officer and as a tourist and actually lived overseas for 10 years of that 47 year period. (Including 3 years in a Moslem country) . I have visited 84 countries and worked in 34 of them. Our current stock is extremely low overseas, and our current real power , save for our incredible military power, is the lowest i have ever seen. It is tragic how the Bushies have squandered so much and have run our country into the ground. We had the world ready to work with us in any way possible in late 2001 and the idiot GWB threw that away.

Although our preoccupation with military stuff has robbed us of our #1 status in many areas there is still a great deal of buried goodwill around the world towards the american people which we do not have to squander further with misguided arrogance posing as strength, instead we need to build partnerships and alliances to beat the terror threat and to offset the rise of Russian nationalism which we have inadvertently encouraged through our misguided energy and defense policies.
