"At the end of the day , the president mused, the biggest threat to America - the only force that can really weaken us - is us. We have so many things going for us right now as a country - from new energy resources to innovation to a growing economy - but, he said, we will never realize our full potential unless our two parties adopt the same outlook that we're asking of Shiites, Sunnis and Kurds or Israelis and Palestinians: No victor, no vanquished and work together. 'Our politics are dysfunctional,' said the president, and we should heed the terrible divisions in the Middle East as a 'warning to us: societies don't work if political factions take maximalist positions. And the more diverse the country is, the less it can afford to take maximalist positions.'
